Tricorn Empty High-Performance Columns

Technical Information

Tricorn™ columns include a glass tube, adapter unit, end cap, filter kit, two stop plugs, two fingertight connectors, two M6 connectors, adapter lock, and filter holder.

Packing Tricorn columns is simplified using Tricorn Packing Connector and the appropriate glass tube. Tricorn Packing Connector includes one packing connector and two EPDM O-rings. Packing connectors are available in three sizes for using different i.d. tubes: 5-5 is for 5-mm tubes on both sides; 5-10 is for a 5-mm tube on one side and a 10-mm tube on the other side; and 10-10 is for 10-mm tubes on both sides.

Tricorn Packing Equipment includes the Packing Equipment 5/50 (5-mm connector and 50-mm glass tube) or 10/100 (10-mm connector and 100-mm glass tube), EPDM O-rings and bottom unit, cap, and stop plug.

Tricorn O-ring packing kit includes O-ring 7 × 1 mm and O-ring 12 × 1 mm (EPDM), two of each.

Tricorn 5 and 10 Coarse Filter Kit is used for large volume/repeated loading of clarified sample to reduce the risk of clogging in combination with capture media. Both filter and coarse filter kits include top and bottom adapters, bottom filters, and EPDM O-rings, five of each.
