Magnetic Caps
Magnetic caps are designed for autosamplers, such as CTC’s Pal system, that use a magnet to move vials. Specialty Silicone Products (SSP) provides open-top caps that are attracted to the strong grip of autosampler magnets for greater processing efficiency and reduced operator handling. The magnetic cap’s center hole supports laboratory testing, but still provides enough surface area for the magnet to securely hold an autosampler vial that’s been filled.
SSP offers two types of magnetic caps:
- 18mm open top metal screw cap
- 20mm, two-piece aluminum / tin alloy (bi-metallic) crimp cap.
Since most autosamplers using magnets are running analysis that are sensitive to siloxane peaks, all the PTFE/Silicone septum in our magnetic caps utilize our Ultra Low Bleed technology ensuring your results are not going to have siloxane interference.
We also use very soft, easy piercing septa in the 18mm cap for SPME applications where very thin, fragile needles are used.
See the product tables below for more information regarding SSP’s magnetic cap offering. All our septa are made in the USA at our Ballston Spa, New York facility.
