Description
DURAN® silicone seal GL 14 with PTFE coating is a peroxide-cured VMQ gasket intended as a replacement cap seal for laboratory screw closures. The PTFE-coated surface confers good chemical resistance, while the silicone body ensures efficient sealing against the bottle neck or vessel rim. Thermal resistance extends to 130 °C under steam and 200 °C under dry heat. Matching sizes are available for PBT screw caps and tamper-evident closures, making the seal a practical spare part for red PBT caps. This component from manufacturer Duran/DWK Life Sciences maintains reliable closure integrity on GL 14 threaded systems used in sample storage and reaction vessels. Supplied as a single piece with a net weight of 0,001 kg, the peroxide-cured silicone construction supports repeated use in chemically demanding laboratory environments. Researchers and laboratory staff rely on the PTFE-coated septum design for leak-tight performance whenever chemical inertness and thermal stability are required at the cap interface.
This article is part of Vial caps & septa, in Vials, caps & septa.

Questions about DURAN® Replacement Cap Liner, PTFE-coated, peroxide cured silicone, VMQ
What is this article?
DURAN® Replacement Cap Liner, PTFE-coated, peroxide cured silicone, VMQ is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes DWK Life Sciences for laboratory use. It sits in Vial caps & septa, inside Vials, caps & septa, in Chromatography equipment.
A vial cap and a septum have to match the vial neck: crimp, screw or snap, and the diameter. The septum material, PTFE/silicone or rubber, decides chemical resistance and how many times a needle can pierce it. A septum that sheds into the solvent becomes ghost peaks.
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.
