Restek, 963450253-T, Force Inert C18 EXP Guard Column Cartridge, 5 x 3.0 mm, 3-pk.

Now available with a premium inert coating, our Force LC guard cartridges provide optimal protection to your LC column and system, while also reducing nonspecific binding of chelating analytes. Combined with Restek’s selective stationary phases, our inert guard cartridges are ideal for the analysis of metal-sensitive compounds. The culmination of 20+ years in LC, Force performance LC columns are long-lasting and reproducible, even under the stress of UHPLC. Premium quality is backed by the strength of our 100% Pure Satisfaction guarantee. And perhaps most important, Force columns are fully scalable between 3 or 5 µm HPLC and 1.8 µm UHPLC, so you can easily transfer and optimize methods without extensive calculations. Apply Force LC columns to all of your HPLC and UHPLC instrument platforms. To help protect your investment and further extend the life of our already-rugged LC columns, Restek offers the patent-pending guard column hardware developed by Optimize Technologies. A Restek LC guard cartridge in an EXP direct connect holder is the ultimate in column protection, especially when using dilute-and-shoot or other minimal sample preparation techniques. Maximum cartridge pressure: 600 bar/8700 psi. Intellectual Property: optimizetech.com/patents
