Hello Thomas,

can you provide part numbers for separate caps and septa?

Thanks
Rick

Hi Bob,
we also have a GVI MultiFlow system and we buy our caps and septa for the glas vials here in Germany at Klaus Ziemer GmbH, Am Parir 27, D-52379 Langerwehe, phone: +49 2423/I hope this helps.

Betreff: Re: [ISOGEOCHEM] septa for exetainer vials

Hi Bob,

Some years ago I went through the same inquiry, as we were using upwards of 200 caps/septa a day.

The Labco septa are a larger size than most precut HPLC or GC septa.  We tried the largest smaller septa--NO GO, the needle punches them through most of the time.

I sort of remember discussing this with the director of Labco: he told me that they purchased septum material in sheets and cut it themselves.  This is too time consuming t
I consoled my environmental guilt by using a bleach rinse and using the recycling bins.  Five years on I guess it's the same old mindset at Labco.
