HPLC File, for Stainless Steel Tubing. ARE-Applied Research brand. 5/PK.
Additional Info:
The 46200‑01F‑005 HPLC Tubing Finishing File (5‑Pack) is a multi‑user solution for post‑cut tubing preparation, designed to ensure stainless steel tubing ends are smooth, burr‑free, and ready for reliable installation in chromatography systems.
When stainless steel tubing is cut, scored, or snapped, it often leaves burrs, sharp edges, or irregular surfaces that can compromise connection quality. These imperfections can lead to:
Poor ferrule seating
Leaks or inconsistent sealing
Increased dead volume at connections
Flow disturbances and reduced chromatographic performance
This finishing file is engineered with the appropriate surface texture to effectively remove burrs and refine tubing ends, producing a uniform, smooth tip necessary for proper fitting engagement.
The 5‑pack configuration ensures availability for multi‑instrument labs, service teams, and high‑throughput environments, supporting consistent tubing preparation across users.
Why Choose a 5‑Pack Tubing File Set?
This configuration is ideal for:
Multi‑user laboratories
Service and maintenance teams
High‑volume tubing preparation workflows
Standardizing finishing procedures across technicians
Provides:
Improved tool availability
Reduced workflow interruptions
Consistent tubing preparation practices
