Pressure-resistant and chemically resistant capillaries made of plastic, stainless steel, and titanium
For HPLC applications, capillaries made of plastic, stainless steel, and titanium are used, which are resistant to both high pressure loads and temperature variations. Stainless steel capillaries are made from the materials 1.4301 and 1.4401. Titanium capillaries are preferred for the cleaning of sensitive and bioactive substances as well as in ion chromatography.
An alternative are PEEK capillaries (Polyetheretherketone). Their pressure resistance varies depending on the tube dimension, ranging from 52 bar to 420 bar at 20°C. The operating temperature ranges from -40°C to +250°C, with short-term tolerances up to +300°C. For easier identification and installation, PEEK precision capillaries are available in various colors, including red, yellow, blue, orange, green, and black.
Precision capillaries made of plastic, stainless steel, and titanium for HPLC
Plastic/PEEK capillaries are made from PEEK (Polyetheretherketone), which are designed for high pressure requirements, covering pressures from 52 bar to 420 bar at +20°C. The working temperature range for PEEK precision capillaries is from -40°C to +250°C; in exceptional cases, temperature increases up to +300°C are possible. To precisely mark systems in HPLC applications, PEEK capillaries are available in various colors, such as black, green, orange, yellow, red, and blue.
Stainless steel capillaries are produced in the material types 1.4301 and 1.4401, which are used as HPLC capillaries in HPLC systems and are suitable for pressures, depending on wall thickness, up to 1000 bar.
A special feature are our HPLC capillaries made of stainless steel, which are internally glass-coated and are used when high-purity analyses need to be conducted.
Precise solutions for a variety of applications
In addition to the highly specialized HPLC precision capillaries, our range also includes capillary tubes for applications in process engineering and plant construction. These include seamless stainless steel variants made from 1.4301 (AISI 304), which are drawn, hardened, and feature a smooth surface. They are used as transfer lines, control lines, or in cooling circuits, especially where extreme corrosion resistance is not required. Titanium capillaries are used primarily when high corrosion resistance is required. They are used in ion chromatography and for the transport of sensitive, bioactive substances.
