Optimize Technologies OPTI-TRAP™ Capillary Trap Cartridge, SDS, 0.5µL, 0.5mm
The OPTI-TRAP™is a bi-directional trap cartridge system which is used individually or in a series for sample concentration and purification. The OPTI-TRAP™ system features a durable biocompatible trap holder assembly made of either PEEK (capillary configuration) or stainless steel with a PEEK flow path (micro and macro configurations). OPTI-TRAPs feature low back pressure and are loaded and eluted manually with a syringe or on-line when plumbed into the sample injection valve. Additionally OPTI-TRAPs include titanium frits for full biocompatibility and custom packing is also available upon request. The cartridges are available in three different sizes: 50uL, 5.0uL & 0.5uL and can be purchased as singles or in 6 packs.
Optimize Technologies EXP™2 6-32 TI-LOK Fitting for all 1/32" OD Tubing (2 EXP™2 TI-LOK fittings & 1 EXP™2 Driver)
The EXP™2 TI-LOK Fittings offer capillary HPLC and UHPLC connections rated to 20,000+ psi in any port and easily fit into tight spaces such as injection valves, column couplers, sample loops and column ovens. The Hand-Tight fittings allow users the versatility to change out capillary tube ID, length or end fittings to create any tube set configuration. Available with 10-32 threads for 1/16" ports and 6-32 and 6-40 threads for 1/32” ports. EXP™2 TI-LOK Fittings feature built-in PEEK ferrules and threaded nuts precision machined from titanium. The ferrule does not permanently swage to the tubing, allowing for many repeat connections and the ability to adjust the tubing to different port depths. EXP™2 TI-LOK Fittings are compatible with PEEK, PEEKsil, Hastelloy C and stainless steel tubing. When used with the PEEKsil the fittings create a zero-dead-volume (ZDV) connection without fracturing the fused silica.
Optimize Technologies EXP™2 Replacement Stems, 0.17µL, 5.0µm HALO, HILIC, 3pk
Specialized features, patented technology, precision engineering and state-of-the-art manufacturing make the new EXP2 Stem Trap an unbeatable choice for ultra high-pressure trapping applications. Its slim architecture allows it to easily fit into crowded instrument compartments or to connect directly to tightly-spaced injection ports. When tightened by hand, the EXP2 Stem Trap seals to 8,700+ psi. Additionally, the product can be wrench tightened to 20,000+ psi (1,400+ bar). The unique packed floating stem installs directly into any 10-32 port and automatically adjusts to provide a perfect ZDV connection. The new EXP2 design incorporates an integral ferrule into the front-end of the holder so there is no separate ferrule to lose! The replacement stems are also low volume/ low-dispersion, intended for many repeat uses and is available with various bed volume and custom packing options. This product is recommended for nano flow applications. For use with EXP™2 Stem Holder Only

Optimize Technologies OPTI-MAX™ Outlet Cartridge Check Valve, 1/16" Ceramic Ball & Seat, PEEK Cartridge, Thermo L Pump
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.
