Column Frits

PerfectPeak® porous chromatography frits are used in HPLC columns to retain the packing media and provide a uniform flow of sample through the column with low hold-up volume. These frits withstand high pressures and highly corrosive chemicals. Bio-inert options are also available.

Product Specs

Geometry

Unidense – Uniform flow across the entire column
Dual Density – Limit flow to the interior region of the frit and reduce dead volume
Concave – Enhance flow uniformity without the need for a flow distribution plate

Dimensions

Diameter – Standard disc diameters available from 0.062” to 0.750”
Thickness – Standard thicknesses of 0.028” and 0.062”

Pore Size

• 0.2, 0.5, and 2 µm – Standard option for HPLC/UHPLC filtration
• 2, 5, 10, and 20 µm – Standard options for semi-prep filtration

Alloy

• 316L SS – Standard HPLC/UHPLC applications
• Titanium – Bio-inert applications
• Hastelloy® – Bio-inert applications with corrosive solvents

Sealing Material

• Metal – Robust sealing surface that can withstand harsh environments
• PEEK – For most bio-inert applications requiring standard sealing
• PTFE – Economical solution for frits requiring the most bio-inert of materials

Assembly Method

• Press Fitting – Standard assembly method for all frits
• Sinter Bonding – For ultimate durability (only available for metal sealing materials)
