Component Supply’s polycarbonate Luer stopcocks are primarily used as disposable components. They are part of a standard system to connect small diameter tubing with leak-proof connections. These Luer stopcocks are composed of a polycarbonate body and a polyethylene arm/hand. Its heat and impact resistance make polycarbonate the toughest of all plastics. Linear, low-crystalline and transparent, polycarbonate’s combination of strength and elasticity prevents deformation, making it ideal for applications requiring durability. Furthermore, polycarbonate remains mostly unaffected by greases, oils and acids. Its electrical resistivity as well as the other characteristics can be upheld in a temperature range of -275°F to 250°F. This product may be gas sterilized before use.
Component Supply seeks to assist researchers and product designers in determining the best products for their specific applications. While we do provide some information regarding the potential applications of our products, often there are many more possibilities. Therefore, if you do not see a description for an application that suits your needs, please contact one of our representatives who can give you further information about this product and others that might aid your project.
Component Supply offers these stopcocks in a variety of configurations. While we stock production run quantities of this tubing for manufacturers, we supply them individually. We do not limit the work of researchers and developers by enforcing order minimums; however, we do offer price breaks at order quantities exceeding 50 of this product.
