Agilent Crimp Kits
All pictures shown are for illustration purpose only. Actual product may vary.
Agilent crimp kits are a convenient way to order crimp vials and crimp caps together.
Convenience packs are an easy way to get 500 of each component using one part number. Packed in a six-drawer, reusable blue plastic cabinet, 500 vials and caps with septa installed are kept handy and dust-free.
Vial kits are packs of vials with caps. These kits are not pre-assembled and do not come in storage drawers like the convenience pack.
The crimp caps are secured to the crimp vials with either Agilent manual crimpers, or Agilent electronic crimpers.
