Chromex Scientific has released Optimize Technologies' Opti-Lok Exp Fitting System.
The system comprises of adjustable nut and ferrule compression fittings that are ideal for extreme high-pressure connections between 1/16in tubing and any 10-32 port.
The Opti-Lok Exp product line streamlines the process of making fluid connections for UHPLC hardware and reduces instrument downtime.
When tightened by hand with nominal torque, the Hand-Tight Opti-Lok Exp seals to 8,700psi.
All configurations incorporate wrench-flats to enable flawless sealing to 20,000psi (1400 Bar).
The Hex Head Nuts are available in multiple lengths to suit many applications and are also rated to 20,000psi (1400 Bar).
The patent-pending Opti-Lok Exp Titanium Hybrid Ferrule integrates the resilience of titanium with the proven sealing ability of PEEK in a one-piece design.
The Titanium Hybrid Ferrule provides a perfect seal with every connection, yet the ferrule can be released without tools to adjust to the different port depths of different HPLC/UHPLC column designs.
This adjustability provides unlimited value through repeated zero-dead-volume connections with any 10-32 port configurations.
