Designed to replace awkward and bulky manual crimping tools, Chromacol's crimpers are available in 11mm and 20mm jaw sizes and each have adjustable steel jaws that fit around closely spaced vials, enabling users to crimp vials directly in crowded autosampler trays.
Lightweight and ergonomically designed, the crimper reduces repetitive strain injury (RSI) associated with normal manual crimpers.
Based on the same design, electric de-cappers are also available from Chromacol for removing caps in an instant - perfect for laboratories that recycle the vials and caps.
For consistent, reliable crimping and de-capping, the Chromacol crimpers and decappers are said to be a valuable addition to any laboratory.
They are described as lightweight and ergonomically designed, making them easy to use and relieve strain.
