Hamilton Medical 81520 syringe: Precision and robustness for demanding laboratories
The Hamilton Medical 81520 syringe is designed to provide a reliable and accurate solution for specific laboratory fluid handling needs. Designed with performance and durability in mind, it is part of the Hamilton 1000 series of syringes, renowned for their quality and reliability in the field of liquid and gas delivery.
This 5 mL syringe features a leak-proof (Gastight) construction, which allows for leak-free delivery even in applications sensitive to pressure or volume variations. This feature is particularly essential in analytical fields such as chromatography, microbiological testing, sample preparation and controlled atmosphere handling.
The 81520 syringe has a PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) Luer Lock connection, ensuring a secure, leak-free connection with female Luer adapters and needles. This connection system ensures perfect stability during operations, while facilitating integration into existing laboratory workflows.
Its body is made of borosilicate glass, a material known for its chemical and thermal resistance. This makes the syringe ideal for repeated use with various solvents or reagents, even at temperatures up to 80°C. The threaded X-Style piston, combined with a PTFE fluid path, ensures smooth and consistent piston movement while minimising dead volume, thereby improving measurement accuracy.
The Hamilton 81520 syringe is also steam sterilisable (autoclavable) and gas sterilisable, further enhancing its sterilisation versatility. It is therefore suitable for use in research environments as well as biotechnology, chemical analysis and quality control laboratories. In addition, it can be used without a needle or fitted with a metal or Kel-F needle, depending on the user's requirements.
Thanks to its high-quality materials, strict manufacturing tolerances and compatibility with pressures up to 200 psig (13.8 bar), the 81520 syringe is also suitable for demanding industrial environments where safety and reliability are priorities.
The Hamilton 81520 syringe embodies the brand's commitment to innovation, quality and performance. It meets the rigorous requirements of scientists and technicians who are looking for a precise, durable dosing solution that is perfectly suited to their experimental protocols.
