new capillary cross-section

Triangular capillaries (thin-walled)

Triangular capillaries with thin walls are manufactured using our special redrawing method for profiled rods. Since the tubes are formed immediately, we are able to achieve very thin wall thicknesses, from 0,1 mm to 0,4 mm. These capillaries come with round edges and can be adjusted in length, according to our customers requests.

Materials

• Soda-lime glass (e.g. AR©)
• Borosilicate glass (e.g. DURAN©, PYREX©, SIMAX©)
• Neutral glass (e.g. FIOLAX© and DUROBAX©)
