CUSTOM ITEM: Caps, Snap Top, with Soft-Guard, White Silicone Rubber / Red PTFE Pre-Slit (X Shape) Septa, fitted in smooth, polyethylene, Green Caps. For use with 11mm, 12x32mm Snap Top autosampler vials. Soft-Guard Brand. BULK PRICING.
Additional Info:
Snap caps provide a fast, press‑fit sealing solution that simplifies vial preparation while maintaining consistent autosampler performance. The X‑slit septa design increases the target area for the autosampler needle, helping improve alignment and reduce resistance during penetration.
The 9502C‑E‑30GX Soft‑Guard™ Snap Caps combine the X‑shape pre‑slit design with advanced Soft‑Guard™ silicone formulation. This enables easier penetration while maintaining improved resealing compared to standard septa, helping extend instrument uptime and reduce missed injections in demanding workflows.
Pre‑slit septa are commonly recommended for systems such as Waters® Alliance and Acquity. While the X‑slit design improves penetration and targeting, it provides slightly less resealing performance than single‑slit configurations. The bonded PTFE/silicone septa ensure strong chemical resistance, while the green cap supports efficient color‑coding and sample organization.
