Guard Column Cartridges, NP Silica, 5um, 100A. 2.1mm ID x 10mm Length. Cogent Brand. 5/PK.

Additional Information:

Cogent NP Silica™ Guard Column Cartridges are designed to protect analytical HPLC columns from particulate contamination and strongly retained compounds that can reduce column efficiency and shorten column lifetime. Packed with the same high-purity stationary phase as the analytical column, these guard cartridges help maintain chromatographic performance while reducing the cost of replacing analytical columns.

82561-PG1 Guard Column Cartridges are packed with 5 µm NP Silica™ stationary phase manufactured from ultra-high purity, low-metal-content 100 Å silica. This unmodified silica stationary phase provides the traditional selectivity associated with USP L3 classified materials, making these cartridges ideal for use with Cogent NP Silica™ analytical HPLC columns. Each cartridge is packed in a stainless steel tube with stainless steel frits secured within durable PEEK frit caps for reliable performance and long service life.

The 2.1 mm ID x 10 mm format is specifically designed to protect 2.1 mm ID analytical columns used in HILIC and normal-phase chromatography. Routine guard cartridge replacement helps maintain analytical column efficiency, minimize downtime, and extend column service life.
