Description
FS1.8-5 is a fused silica adaptor for 1/16'' connections, intended for tubing with an outer diameter of 0,8 mm. It provides a defined interface between fused silica lines and standard chromatography fittings, supporting stable fluid paths in analytical and preparative setups. The adaptor uses a Valcon T sealing configuration suited to laboratory chromatography hardware and is supplied as a pack of five pieces for installation, replacement or spare stocking. In capillary GC, LC and related fluidic assemblies, correct matching of adaptor geometry to tubing OD helps limit leaks and unnecessary dead volume at the joint. This accessory fits routine instrument maintenance, method setup and multi-line configurations where 0,8 mm OD fused silica tubing must be coupled reliably to 1/16'' ports. Offered from manufacturer Macherey-Nagel within the chromatography accessories range, FS1.8-5 is a practical consumable-style fitting for laboratories that standardise on fused silica tubing of this diameter. The five-piece pack supports several instruments or repeated changeovers without frequent reordering, while the specified 1/16'' format aligns with common valve, union and port dimensions used in modern chromatographic systems.

Questions about FS1.8-5
What is this article?
FS1.8-5 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Macherey-Nagel for laboratory use. It sits in Chromatography accessories, inside Vials, caps & septa, in Chromatography equipment.
These are the small chromatography parts that are not a column, a vial or a syringe: vial racks, solvent filters, waste caps, ferrule kits. A solvent inlet filter is what keeps the pump from swallowing particles out of the bottle.
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.
Which category should I open next?
