Description
CrystalCap™ Copper Magnetic ALS HT is designed to prevent ice formation along the copper pin/MicroTube™ in a cryostream where the flow is positioned perpendicular, at an angle, or non-collinear to the MicroTube. The CrystalCap Copper Magnetic ALS HT is a non-threaded, 1.8 ml (approximate) cryo vial storage container with a specially engineered ALS compatible cap/pin for cryocrystallography. Each ALS style cap is manufactured from an alloy base which allows the cap to be magnetically secured to a magnet base in the goniometer head. Into the alloy cap is threaded and bonded a solid, 3 mm diameter copper pin. The end of the copper pin is machined to an aerodynamic 60° and is assembled with a MicroTube and CryoLoop (20 micron diameter nylon) or is available without a MicroTube and CryoLoop (HR8-182). A ring magnet is molded into the top end of the vial so that when the cap is positioned in the vial, the ring magnet holds the cap on the vial during cryogenic storage. The vial has two holes for venting. The 18 mm designates the distance between the top of the copper pin and the bottom of the CrystalCap Copper Magnetic where contact is made with the magnetic base.

For crystal transfer under cryo temperature use the 18 mm CryoTong (catalog number HR4-637 for the 110 mm overall tool length or catalog number HR5-112 for the 180 mm overall tool length).

The cap features a two dimensional bar coded and alphanumeric 16 x 16 data matrix. Each cap is also color coded.

HR8-182 is a CrystalCap Copper Magnetic ALS HT cap only. No MicroTube, no CryoLoop, no Vial.

Note: Caps with Mounted CryoLoops are sold without vials. Vials available separately.
