Product Description
An inexpensive septum that still protects sample integrity is a practical choice for routine vial work. These PTFE-faced rubber septa reseal well after puncture, resist coring and keep contents isolated from the rubber backing, making them a sensible everyday stock item for busy labs.
This listing is for Kimble catalog number 73816-18: PTFE-Faced Red Rubber Septa, 18-400, Case of 144. Each septum has a highly chemical-resistant PTFE face over a rubber backing. Sizes fit 15-425, 18-400 and 24-400 open-top caps, and the N73834T-20 is a PTFE-faced butyl septum for 20 mm and 20A aluminum seal finishes. Septa come in packs of 100 or 144. Order it from LIGHT LABS and keep your lab stocked with genuine DWK Life Sciences products.
