Optimize Technologies EXP™ Trap Cartridge, 1mm x 5mm, 5.0µm HALO, C8, 3pk
The Hand-Tight EXP™ Trap Column is rated to 20,000+ psi. This unique design connects directly to any injection valve (with 10-32 threads) or in-line with 1/16” tubing for unparalleled convenience and efficiency. The EXP™ System enables chemists to quickly remove detergents or salts which can affect the ionization process in MS work. This trapping technique can concentrate the sample directly on-line, allowing for increased recovery of precious sample material compared to off-line techniques. Free-Turn™ architecture allows users to change cartridges by hand without breaking fluid connections on the holder inlet/outlet. The EXP™ Trap Column family now offers packed beds available in 2, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 30mm lengths with diameters ranging from 1-4.6mm and bed volumes from 1.6-600µL. Please contact your representative directly if you're interested in a length other than 5mm.
Optimize Technologies OPTI-MAX™ Inlet Cartridge Check Valve, 3/16" Ruby Ball/Sapphire Seat, PEEK Cartridge, All Beckman
Opti-Max™ Cartridge Check Valves are designed to offer maximum performance and ease of use. From the sharp, consistent threads on OPTI-MAX™ custom housings, to the exacting standards used to match ball/seat sets in OPTI-MAX™ cartridges, every aspect of design and manufacturing reflects an unavoidable fact: when it comes to reliable check valve operation, quality and precision make a big difference. OPTI-MAX™ check valves offer many advantages over OEM check valve systems, and are better designed, better made and more reliable than any other after-market check valve product. Additionally, OPTI-MAX™ Free-Turn™ housings can be removed with the tubing still attached, accelerating check valve maintenance while reducing fitting wear.
Optimize Technologies OPTI-SEAL™ UHMW-PE Plunger Seal, Waters Alliance/2690, 2695, 2790, 2795
Optimize Piston Seals are the longest lasting seals on the market. Machined from either of two proprietary polymer blends, UHMW-PE or ITB, Optimize Seals provide the ultimate in high pressure sealing capacity. For mostly aqueous buffered mobile phases, Opti-Seal™ UHMW-polyethylene is the wisest choice. Specially designed to be more resistant to abrasion and wear than standard polyethylene seals, they can last up to seven times longer under mostly aqueous conditions. Despite the UHMW-PE's durability, it has a coefficient of friction approaching that of PTFE. The homogenous polymer nature leads to less shedding, but when it does occur, a larger, more fibrous particle is produced which is easily caught by a filter frit. This item is equivalent to OEM part number WAT270938.
Optimize Technologies OPTI-LYNX™ Trap Cartridges, 100µL Bed, C18AQ/40µm, 5pk
OPTI-LYNX™ Trap Cartridges combine the convenience of our quick-connect holder with a versatile selection of packed-bed cartridges to offer chromatographers numerous options for on-line or off-line sample clean-up and pre-concentration. Each cartridge shares the same external dimensions, allowing you to use different diameters and porosities with the same holder hardware. OPTI-LYNX™ Traps are available in packed-bed volumes of 4 µL to 100 µL with a wide range of standard and custom packings. Whether you want to separate a peptide digest from its matrix for further analyses, or prepare a dilute small molecule sample for LC injection without any sample loss - OPTI-LYNX™ Traps are the ideal tool to optimize your technique. These columns can be loaded and regenerated repeatedly for maximum value.

Optimize Technologies Tube Set for OPTI-PAK™ Trap Cartridges, Rheodyne Valves (0.003" ID PEEK Tubing and Fitting Included)
We realize that your time is valuable and should not be wasted worrying about fittings. For this reason, all Optimize fittings are precision machined in the USA for optimal quality and thread consistency. The machining process is the best way to ensure tight manufacturing tolerances and minimal product variance.
Optimize Technologies EXP™2 6-32 Fitting Kit for 1/32" OD SS Tubing (10 Titanium Hybrid Ferrules, 10 EXP™2 Nuts & 1 EXP™2 Driver)
Featuring a small 3/16” hex-head EXP™2 nut, EXP™ Original Titanium Hybrid Ferrule and the new EXP™2 Driver, the EXP™2 Fittings offer hand-tight connections rated to 20,000 psi+. The EXP™2 Nuts are available with 6-32, 6-40 and 10-32 threads and have been scaled down to allow for maximum working room in cramped spaces. The EXP™2 Driver is a small, easy to use knurled torque driver which snaps on to the nuts for hand-tightening and loosening. It is also slotted so that it can be easily removed from the nut and tubing after use. The Hybrid Ferrule provides a perfect seal with every connection, yet the swage can be released without tools to adjust to the different port depths of various hardware. This adjustability provides unlimited value through repeated zero-dead-volume connections with any port configuration. EXP™2 fittings are the premier adjustable nut and ferrule compression system for extreme high-pressure connections.
Optimize Technologies EXP™2 Replacement Stems, 0.33µL, 5.0µm HALO, C18, 3pk
