Buy 1ml Shell Vial 8mm PE Plug for Autosampler

The Thread-less Solution for High-Throughput Autosampler Efficiency

Shell vials are the preferred choice for rapid injection in chromatography. Their thread-less design drastically simplifies the sample preparation process: simply press the soft PE plug to seal. This eliminates the repetitive turning required for screw-cap vials, significantly improving workflow for labs processing high volumes of samples with tight deadlines.

Broad Autosampler Compatibility: Our 8.2*40mm 1mL shell vials conform to industry standards, ensuring seamless compatibility with the sample trays of most major HPLC and GC autosamplers, including systems from Agilent, Waters, Shimadzu, and more. Achieve easy system integration and minimized downtime.

Material Options & Sample Integrity

We offer three essential variants to meet diverse analytical needs, ensuring your samples remain stable and uncontaminated throughout the analysis. All vials are pre-cleaned to guarantee chromatography accuracy.

V181 (Clear Glass): Made from Type I Borosilicate glass, offering superior chemical resistance for routine analysis of non-light-sensitive compounds.

V183 (Amber Glass): Essential for photolabile samples, the amber glass formulation effectively blocks UV light, protecting light-sensitive compounds from degradation and ensuring reliable results.

VP181 (Clear Plastic): Constructed from high-purity Polypropylene (PP), this is the ideal cost-effective alternative for analyzing aggressive samples (e.g., HF) or when glass contamination must be strictly avoided.

8mm Soft PE Plug: The polyethylene plug provides a secure, temporary seal while its soft material ensures the autosampler needle can penetrate with minimal resistance, reducing wear on your equipment.

Strict Dimensional Control: The precise 8.2*40mm dimensions guarantee correct placement and alignment in the autosampler, preventing injection failures and ensuring analytical consistency.

Applications Spotlight

Optimal Applications for the 1mL Shell Vial System

High-Throughput QC Screening

In Quality Control (QC) labs requiring the sequential injection of numerous identical samples, the rapid sealing capability of shell vials dramatically cuts down sample handling time.

Drug Dissolution and Stability Testing

Ideal for analyzing multiple time points in stability or dissolution studies. The 1mL capacity is perfect for micro-analysis, minimizing sample consumption.

Trace and Limited Sample Analysis

Suitable for precious or rare micro-samples. The vial design facilitates deeper needle penetration to maximize retrieval and utilization of limited analytes.

Environmental and Food Safety

Used as temporary, quick-seal containers during rapid screening of environmental contaminants or food safety residues where sample turnaround is critical.

Fast Sample Transfer

Excellent as an intermediate vessel for quick transfer from larger storage bottles to the automated autosampler tray system due to the plug's easy-to-use nature.
