Autosampler Vial

10-425 Sample Vial and Cap and Septa

The 10-425 autosampler vial is a standard ND10mm open-top screw cap glass vial designed for routine HPLC and GC sample storage and injection. It features a uniform flat bottom for stable placement in autosamplers and is compatible with Agilent, Shimadzu, and Waters systems. The vial is available in clear or amber borosilicate glass with or without a writing area, and is supplied with pre-assembled caps and septa to reduce handling contamination. A range of septa types, including PTFE/silicone and pre-slit options, supports consistent needle penetration and leak-free sealing during analysis.

Standard ND10mm screw cap design ensures compatibility with Agilent, Shimadzu, and Waters autosamplers
Flat bottom provides stable positioning in autosampler racks and inserts
Pre-assembled caps and septa reduce handling and contamination risk during setup
PTFE/silicone septa offer reliable sealing and repeated needle puncture resistance

Where It Is Used

Applications And Buyers

Application Scenarios

Storing and analysing pharmaceutical drug substance samples in HPLC and GC systems
Preparing environmental water and soil extracts for trace contaminant detection
Handling food and beverage samples requiring long-term stability and low extractables
Supporting high-throughput QC testing in laboratories using automated sample injection
Using with pre-slit septa in routine methods where needle penetration consistency is critical

Who It Is For

Pharmaceutical and biotech QC labs running high-volume HPLC and GC analyses
Environmental and food testing labs needing reliable, consistent vial performance
Contract research organisations standardising on a single vial format across multiple instruments
Lab distributors sourcing a complete vial, cap, and septa system from one supplier
OEM partners requiring private-label packaging and custom cap/septa configurations

Problems It Solves

Sample loss or contamination from loose caps and unsealed septa during autosampler transport
Inconsistent needle penetration due to non-pre-slit or hard-to-pierce septa
Vials tipping over in autosampler racks due to uneven or domed bottoms
Need to use multiple vial types for different sample matrices or light sensitivity
Time wasted assembling caps and septa manually before each run

Comparison

Compared With The Alternatives

Versus Standard glass vials without pre-assembled caps

Pre-assembled caps reduce handling and contamination risk, especially in high-throughput environments

Versus Vials with domed bottoms

Flat bottom ensures stable placement in autosampler inserts, reducing risk of tipping during injection

Versus Non-pre-slit septa

Pre-slit septa allow consistent needle penetration with less force, reducing septa debris and needle wear

Versus Plastic vials

Borosilicate glass offers lower extractables and better chemical resistance compared to plastic, critical for sensitive HPLC and GC analysis

Use Guide

How To Use It

Select clear vials for visible samples and amber vials for light-sensitive compounds
Use pre-slit septa when consistent needle penetration is required in automated systems
Ensure cap is fully tightened to prevent leaks during injection or storage
Label vials directly on the writing area if available, avoiding external tags
Do not over-tighten caps to avoid damaging the septa or neck thread
Store vials in a clean, dry environment to prevent contamination or breakage
