Stainless steel capillary G1367-87304: an essential component for high-performance liquid chromatography
The G1367-87304 capillary designed by Agilent Technologies is a high-precision connection element for liquid chromatography (LC) systems. It features a stainless steel design, a material known for its mechanical strength, compatibility with a wide range of solvents and chemical inertness, making it a reliable choice for rigorous analytical environments.
With a length of 250 mm and an internal diameter of 0.17 mm, this capillary enables optimal sample transfer between different modules of the LC system, such as the autosampler and the chromatographic column. Its standard geometry makes it compatible with many LC applications, ensuring low dead volume, which is essential for preserving the integrity and accuracy of analytical results.
One of the major advantages of the G1367-87304 is the integration of Swagelok-type fittings (ID 1.6 mm) at both ends. These fittings are factory crimped, ensuring a secure connection with no risk of leakage or loosening, even under high pressure. This configuration also prevents human error associated with manual crimping and allows for quick and reliable installation in chromatography modules.
This capillary is particularly suitable for use with high-performance autosamplers in the Agilent 1200 series, especially for analyses requiring high repeatability, low cross-contamination and fast sample transfer. It is recommended for installations where robustness, reliability and analytical compatibility are paramount.
Thanks to its standardised nature, the G1367-87304 can be easily integrated into LC system maintenance and replacement protocols, making it a practical solution for both regular users and maintenance technicians. It also complies with industry standards for traceability and compatibility of laboratory components.
