Chromatography Vials for HPLC, UHPLC and GC Sample Handling
Browse chromatography vials for HPLC, UHPLC and GC workflows, and compare listed capacity, glass type, neck finish, dimensions, closure format and package quantity.
Selection Considerations
A chromatography vial is selected around the sample volume, autosampler format, closure system and chemical compatibility required by the method. Compare the listed vial capacity, glass type, neck finish and dimensions with the autosampler documentation and intended sample workflow. Where a vial, cap and septum are offered separately, confirm compatible dimensions and closure formats.
- Match vial capacity and recovery format to the expected injection volume, remaining sample volume and method workflow.
- Compare neck finish, vial dimensions and closure style with the intended autosampler and selected cap or septum.
- Review listed clear or amber glass format, package quantity and the exact part number before requesting sourcing support.

Frequently Asked Questions
How should I choose chromatography vial capacity?
Start with the sample volume, required injection volume and autosampler format. Compare the listed vial capacity and dimensions with the actual workflow and instrument documentation.
Are screw-neck and snap-neck vials interchangeable?
No. Vial neck finish and closure format must be compatible. Confirm the exact vial, cap and septum specifications before assembling a sample container.
When should amber glass vials be considered?
Amber glass can be evaluated when the method or sample-handling procedure calls for reduced light exposure. Confirm material suitability using the sample and method requirements.
