Description
Crimping pliers for crimp caps 11 mm are a dedicated hand tool for sealing and opening laboratory vials fitted with aluminium crimp caps. Designed for routine sample preparation and chromatography workflows, the pliers enable reliable crimping as well as controlled decrimping of 11 mm aluminium seals without damaging the vial neck. The compact format supports precise force application at the bench, helping laboratories maintain consistent closure integrity for volatile or sensitive samples. Supplied as a single unit with a net weight of 0,500 kg, the tool fits standard vial handling stations and storage drawers. These crimping pliers from manufacturer Labbox belong to the METRIA product line and are intended for aluminium crimp-cap vials commonly used in analytical chemistry, quality control and research environments. Categories include crimping tongs, opening tongs and sealing tongs, reflecting dual-purpose use for both closing and removing caps. Robust construction supports repeated daily operation in busy sample-prep areas where dependable vial sealing is essential for reproducible analytical results.

Questions about Hand decapper for 11 mm caps
What is this article?
Hand decapper for 11 mm caps is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Labbox for laboratory use. It sits in Crimpers & decappers, inside Vials, caps & septa, in Chromatography equipment.
A crimper closes a crimp cap onto a vial neck. A decapper takes it off. The jaw size, 11 mm or 20 mm, has to match the cap. A crimp that is too tight cracks the neck. One that is too loose leaks in the tray. Electronic and manual tools differ in how repeatable the squeeze is.
An autosampler vial is the small closed bottle a chromatograph picks up. The neck is crimp, screw or snap, and the cap and the septum have to be that neck. The septum is the part the needle pierces. A soft septum reseals. A septum that is wrong for the solvent swells or sheds particles into the sample. Inserts reduce the volume when the sample is scarce. The separation they feed is described with IUPAC names and PubChem data.
