What this tube is for

A 5 mm NMR tube with a constriction: a narrowed neck a short way below the cap, where the glass can be melted shut with a torch. The 5 mm is the outer diameter of the tube (4.95 mm), the size that most NMR probes take. The length, 7 inches, is 178 mm. Deutero states that the constriction allows quick and easy flame sealing of the tube, even for inexperienced users.

A flame-sealed tube keeps the sample closed for good. Typical uses are samples that must not meet air or moisture, volatile samples, and reference samples that are kept for a long time.

A sealed tube cannot release pressure: keep this in mind before you heat the sample.

If you need to open and close the tube again, see the NMR tubes with PTFE valve or the screw-cap NMR tubes.

Your choices

Grade: 300, 400 or 500 MHz. The grade tells you how straight and round the tube is. Choose the grade of your spectrometer, or a higher one.

Length: 7 inches. The tubes are 7 inches (178 mm) long as supplied. After sealing they are shorter, because the top above the neck comes off.

Pack. Packs of 5, each tube with its cap.

The most common choice is boroct500-5-7: the 500 MHz grade.
