How to Choose a Hamilton Syringe

Hamilton Syringe Guide


For a Gas Sample, Use a GASTIGHT® Syringe:
  • Gastight 1000, 1700, 1800 Series


For a Liquid Sample, Choose Between a Microliter™, Modified Microliter™ or a Gastight Syringe:
  • Microliter 600,700, 800 and 900 Series
  • Modified Microliter 7000 Series
For Liquid Sample:
0.5 µ L - 5 µ L = 7000 Series
2.5 µ L - 5 µ L = 600 Series
5 µ L - 10 µ L = 900 Series
5 µ L - 250 µ L = 700, 800 Series
10 µ L - 250 µ L = 1700, 1800 Series
10 µ L - 500 µ L = 700, 1700 Series
1 mL - 100 mL = 1000 Series

For Gas Sample:
10 µ L - 250 µ L = 1700, 1800 Series
10 µ L - 500 µ L = 1700 Series
1 mL - 100 mL = 1000 Series
  • Cemented- not recommended for use with halogenated solvents, such as MeCl2; not autoclavable
  • Removable- advantageous for laboratories with multiple users; economical since you can replace the needle without having to purchase a new syringe
  • Luer Tip Cemented- ground glass tip with a cemented needle; not recommended for use with halogenated solvents, such as MeCl2; not autoclavable
  • Luer Tip- ground glass tip can be used with most hypodermic needles; Kel-F® hub needles, PTFE tubing assemblies and connectors can also be used; offers flexibility
  • PTFE Luer Lock- can be used with luer (Metal or Kel-F) hub needles, PTFE tubing assemblies and connectors can be used; offers flexibility
  • Knurled Hub- replaceable needles; used only with the 7000 Series syringes
  • Point Style AS: special conical style needle point designed to withstand the demands of multiple injections; exclusively used on autosampler syringes
  • Point Style 2: beveled non-coring needle point recommended for septum penetration; only needle gauges 26s - 22 are recommended for optimum septum penetration
  • Point Style 3: blunt needle point for use with HPLC injection valves and for sample pipetting
  • Point Style 4: 10 - 12° beveled needle point recommended for life science applications; special point styles such as 12°, 30° and 45° are available on request
  • Point Style 5: conical needle with side port for penetration of septa, thin-gauged vinyls and plastics without coring; minimizes septum damage

Do you need a rugged syringe?

  • Syringe Guide- easily installed on a syringe to prevent the plunger from bending or from being pulled out
  • Reproducibility (Chaney) Adapter- easily installed on a syringe for consistent, reproducible injections; also prevents plunger damage
  • Reinforced Plungers- Series 600, 800, 900 and 1800 syringes offer an extended barrel which prevents bent plungers
