VICI electrochemically plates PEEK and fused silica tubing with pure nickel, strengthening the tubing and allowing direct connections using metal ferrules, while maintaining the chemical benefits of the wetted surfaces inside.
Nickel-clad fused silica
- Inert, flexible transfer lines
- Improved heat transfer
Nickel-clad PEEK
- Permits use of PEEK tubing at 40,000 psi
- Direct connection with metal ferrules
Nickel-clad fused silica, polyimide-coated
- Improved heat transfer for FS columns
- Permits resistive heating of columns and transfer lines
- Allows direct connection using metal ferrules
- Rated up to 20,000 psi (dependent on size and plating thickness)
