Peek connectors for HPLC, GC and life science – ensuring precision and reliability
Our PEEK fittings and connectors are a fundamental part of a variety of industries, from medical and pharmaceutical research to analytical chemistry and biotechnology. The connectors are a crucial component when it comes to precisely controlling and manipulating the flow of liquids and gases. Manufacturing the connectors from the high-performance thermoplastic polyetheretherketone (Peek) helps increase the overall efficiency, accuracy and reliability of the systems.
Benefit from the advantages of our high-quality PEEK connectors
Chemical Compatibility: Peek connectors are highly resistant to a wide range of chemicals, including aggressive solvents and corrosive substances. This chemical compatibility ensures that fluidic systems can handle various liquids and gases without connectors corroding or leaking over time.
High Purity: Peek is known for its low extracts and releases, making it an excellent choice for applications where the purity of the liquid transported is critical. In life science industries such as medical technology, pharmaceuticals and biotechnology, Peek connectors help ensure that the fluid being transported remains pure.
Thermal Stability: Peek connectors can operate efficiently in a wide temperature range, from subzero to elevated temperatures. This property is invaluable in fluidic systems that can be subject to extreme temperature fluctuations during various processes.
Low outgassing: In high-precision applications, such as aerospace or analytical instrumentation, Peek connectors offer minimal outgassing. This is important to maintain a clean and controlled environment and prevent potential contamination of sensitive samples or equipment.
High pressure resistance: Peek connectors can handle high pressure fluidic applications such as chromatography (HPLC, GC), making them ideal for situations where maintaining system integrity under elevated pressure is critical.
Biocompatibility: In the medical and life science fields, Peek connectors are biocompatible, meaning they can be used safely in contact with biological fluids and tissues. This makes them a suitable choice for applications involving medical devices and diagnostic devices.
Mechanical Strength: Peek connectors have excellent mechanical strength and can withstand physical stress and maintain structural integrity over time. This is particularly important in fluidic systems that are subject to dynamic conditions or frequent connections and separations.
