Vials, Septa

Snap ring vials and micro-vials ND11 with wide opening made of natural or amber PMP or PP are a shatterproof alternative to glass vials.

The micro-inserts made of first hydrolytic class glass are suitable for

• Short thread vials ND9, with wide opening made of glass or plastic
• Screw neck vials ND10, with wide opening
• Crimp neck vials ND11, with wide opening
• Snap ring vials ND11, with wide opening
• Shell vials, with a nominal volume of 2 ml

Screw seals ND8 are made of PP and are supplied without or with fitted septa made of a variety of materials. They have a 8-425 thread, a 5.5 mm centre hole or are closed.

These septa are temperature-resistant from -40 °C to 110 °C and easier to penetrate and have lower particle formation than septa made of natural rubber.

Screw seals ND13 are made of PP and have a 13-425 thread. They have a 8.5 mm centre hole or are closed. Screw seals are supplied with fitted septa made of a variety of materials or without any septa.

Suitable septa with a diameter of 12 mm made of different materials are available on request.

Screw seals ND24 (EPA) are made of PP and are supplied with or without fitted septa made of a variety of materials. They have a 24-400 thread, a 15 mm centre hole or are closed.

Suitable septa with a diameter of 22 mm made of different materials are available on request.

Screw seals ND10 are made of PP and have a 10-425 thread. They have a 7 mm centre hole or are closed. Screw seals are supplied with fitted septa made of a variety of materials or without any septa.

These septa are temperature-resistant from -60 °C to 200 °C and have better purity than septa made of natural rubber, butyl or red rubber. However, they have less effective resealability properties and are therefore more suitable for single-injection applications.

Septa with a double-sided PTFE coating show a very low particle formation during penetration.

The blue Push-On caps made of PE have a thinned penetration point, but no additional septum. They are an inexpensive alternative to crimp caps for non-critical applications.

Short thread screw seals ND9 are made of PP and are supplied with fitted septa made of a variety of materials. The caps have a 6 mm centre hole and are available in different colours. The screw caps are similar in shape to the crimp caps and are therefore also suitable for robotic handling.

In this case, caps and septa form an inseparable unit (Ultrabond), which means that even a blunt needle is unable to push the septa into the vial.

These septa are temperature-resistant from -60 °C to 200 °C and have better purity than septa made of red rubber. However, they have less effective resealability properties and are therefore more suitable for single-injection applications.

Crimp and headspace seals ND20 are made of aluminium and are supplied with fitted septa made of a variety of materials. There are the following different types of caps available:

Plain caps with a 10 mm center hole. These caps are suitable for standard applications. They are available in several colours on request.

Clear lacquered caps, so called headspace caps, with a special score line that breaks when the internal pressure reaches 3.0 ± 0.5 bar. The excess pressure is then released, and the risk of the vial exploding can be avoided.

Clear lacquered centre tear-off caps and complete tear-off caps. These caps are available in several colours on request.

Gold lacquered, magnetic crimp caps with 5 mm centre hole to be used with CE HS500/HS800, CTC 500, as well as Fisons HS500 / HS800 instruments.

Gold lacquered, magnetic crimp caps with 8 mm centre hole to be used with CTC Combi PAL instruments.

Red lacquered, magnetic bimetal crimp caps with 8 mm centre hole to be used with CTC Combi PAL instruments.

These grey septa are temperature-resistant from -40 °C to 120 °C and have excellent chemical properties. They are 3.0 mm thick and have a hardness of 50° shore A.

Also on Pharma-Fix seals, it is only the butyl areas that can come into contact with the sample, and these are PTFE coated. The areas that abut the edges of the glass are not coated. This ensures a particularly good seal.

Screw seals ND24 (EPA) are made of PP and are supplied with or without fitted septa made of a variety of materials. They have a 24-400 thread, a 15 mm centre hole or are closed.

These septa are temperature-resistant from -60 °C to 220 °C and have better purity than septa made of natural rubber or red rubber. However, they have less effective resealability properties and are therefore more suitable for single-injection applications. The silicone is fully coated with a silver aluminium foil.
