Description
Opening pliers and crimping pliers for 20 mm crimp caps provide simple, comfortable manual handling for sealing and opening laboratory vials and bottles. Crimping pressure is limited and adjusted via a set screw in the handle, so operators can fine-tune force for consistent results on different container types. A chemically resistant surface coating makes the tool well suited to everyday laboratory environments where reagents and solvents are present. This hand crimping tool from manufacturer Altmann Analytik is offered as a practical alternative to common 20 mm crimp tools used across analytical and sample-preparation workflows. Supplied as one piece, it supports routine vial work in chromatography, quality control and general lab practice. The combination of adjustable pressure control and a durable coated finish helps maintain reliable performance during frequent use without complex setup.
This article is part of Crimpers & decappers, in Vials, caps & septa.

Questions about decapper for 20 mm crimp caps
What is this article?
decapper for 20 mm crimp caps is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Altmann Analytik 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.
