HPLC Tubing Cutter

Accurate and precise cutter for HPLC tubing

The TC-20 tubing cutter is the only CE marked motorised cutter for HPLC tubing currently available.

A zero dead volume connection is important for maximum chromatographic performance. Unswept volume, caused by a poor fit between tubing and the mating seat, can cause sample dispersion and unsatisfactory chromatographic results. Poor fit of the tubing can be due to a cut edge that is not square, or by improper deburring. Burrs may prevent the tubing from fully seating and may restrict the internal diameter.

Clean, square cuts:

The TC-20 tube cutter assures a zero dead volume connection. The tubing is held securely in a clamp vice on the vertical swing arm. This swing arm is then lowered against the abrasive cutting wheel, producing a perfectly square cut. No lubricant or cutting fluid is required.

Cuts 3 common sizes of HPLC tubing:

1/16", 1/8" and 1/4" outside diameter (OD) tubing with inside diameters as small as 0.008" can be smooth-cut and dressed without distortion.

Dressing tool included:

The precision ground dressing tool for 1/16" OD tubing is attached directly to the swing arm; it cannot be misplaced or lost! Simply place the cut tubing end in the tool and rotate the knurled handle to finish both the internal and external diameters of the tubing in one operation. Dressing tools in other sizes are also available.

Safe, simple operation:

A shield on the swing arm covers the abrasive wheel, making the operation safe and simple.
