Stainless Steel Tubing 1/16" OD x .030" ID

Question 1: How do I know if this tubing will fit my system?

Answer: This tubing is designed for systems that accept 1/16" OD tubing, which is a common standard in chromatography and analytical fluidics. Verify that your fittings, ferrules, and ports are designed for 1/16" OD tubing before ordering.

Question 2: What fittings do I need with this tubing?

Answer: Use fittings designed for 1/16" OD stainless steel tubing. Examples include the U-401 ferrule paired with the U-400 nut. Refer to your system specifications for compatibility.

Question 3: Why choose stainless steel tubing instead of PEEK or polymer tubing?

Answer: Stainless steel tubing is often selected when applications require:

• High pressure capability
• Excellent mechanical strength
• Good durability in demanding environments
• Minimal tubing expansion under pressure
• Compatibility with many analytical solvents
• Applications that require higher temperatures

Question 4: What applications is this tubing commonly used for?

Answer: Typical applications include:

• HPLC and UHPLC fluid paths
• Analytical instrumentation
• High-pressure fluid transfer
• Laboratory and research fluidic systems
