The InertCore C8 pre-columns 20x2.1mm, 2.6µm, are used to protect InertCore C8 HPLC columns with an inner diameter of 2.1mm. These pre-columns come with ready-to-use hardware and therefore do not require a pre-column holder.
The InertCore series consists of a core-shell material. This means that the particles have a non-porous core and a porous shell. This particle design results in high efficiency combined with low backpressure. As a result, UHPLC performance is possible on an HPLC system. This makes these columns ideal for anyone who wants to get more performance out of an existing system or speed up a method. The service life can be extended by using appropriate precolumn cartridges.
