COLUMN FRITS & PIPETTE TIP FRITS

These pipette tip filters act as vents to prevent aerosol contamination of the pipettor when using air displacement pipettors.  Our filters offer protection against cross-contamination by isolating the pipette body from the chemicals being drawn into the tips.  The pore size on these frits is 30 microns. Our pipette filters are used for a wide variety of applications includingPCR®, DNA amplification and sequencing, forensics, tissue culture and protocols that involve pipetting vaporous, radioactive, biohazard or corrosive materials.  They are available in the standard hyrophobic* and also hydrophilic** formulations which are designated with an “L”” after the part number.  These parts have a tolerance of ± .005″ on thickness and ± .005″ on diameter.  Manufactured in the United States.

*Hydrophobic = Fear of water, repels water

**Hydrophilic = Filters water
