An Integrated Closure System
Introducing our new Sample Vault SeriesTM NMR tubes with NorLocTM caps (U.S. Patent No. 8,054,080), engineered for a new generation of high-throughput lab automation systems. Designed to be used with 96 position carriers using 103.5 mm (4”) long NMR tubes with open port caps, or 178 mm (7”) long NMR tubes with closed port caps. NorLocTM caps have superior holding and sealing capabilities which eliminate cap/tube failure in your instrument. Our patented design incorporates a blue band positioned on the NMR tube that aligns with the base of the cap, indicating a properly locked position. Our NorLocTM cap and Sample Vault SeriesTM tube is an integrated closure system for fail-safe delivery of your sample into the magnet. We offer Sample Vault SeriesTM tubes in both 3mm & 5mm for use up to 700 MHz and up to 950 MHz. Our proven quality and innovative engineering speaks for itself.
- Engineered for a new generation of high-throughput lab automation systems.
- Two precision types available for up to 700 MHz and up to 950 MHz spectrometers.
- Superior NorLocTM cap (U.S. Patent No. 8,054,080) attaches semi-permanently for multiple use and for critical applications.
- Choice of two NorLocTM caps either closed port cap or open port cap, giving you the ultimate in choice of sample sealing.
