Specifications

Temperature Mininert
valves can be used at temperature up to 105°F. However, after use at high temperatures, the valve may leak slightly when cooled to room temperature.
Pressure
The sealing ability of Mininert valves is more than adequate for containing most volatile liquids and gases at low pressures. Mininert valves have been used as high as 120 psi without leakage, but this is not a recommendation for pressurizing glass containers to these levels. Such pressurization of glass containers can be extremely dangerous.
Chemical Resistance
PTFE is highly inert and may be used with most common materials. It is particularly useful for working with most acids and organic solvents. Problems may be encountered when used with organometallics and some strong bases. We recommend actual exposure tests before use with any material.

Valves for vials
Models are available for screw-cap and crimp-top vials. The screw-cap Mininert is available in 13, 15, 18, 20, and 24 mm cap sizes. The crimp- top valve for 13 mm ID glassware slides into the neck of the vial and features a threaded flange which is turned to provide a leak-tight fit.

Mininert push-button valves are highly dependable, leak-tight closures for screw-cap vials and other laboratory containers. When used with a glass vial, only PTFE and glass are in contact with the contents. Their unique features make Mininert valves the ideal closure for calibration standards, air- or moisture-sensitive fluids, derivatizing reagents, or volatile chemicals. Operation is extremely simple - push the green button to open the valve, insert the needle through the septum and take a sample, withdraw the needle, and push the red button to close the valve.
