Of course, fittings are standard items used to connect the components together, using tubing as the flow path bridge between components. Yet, one of the most commonly-asked questions regarding fittings is, “Where do all these fittings go in my system?” In other words, how do I know what to use and where? One common way to distinguish between fittings is by classifying them based on the pressure they can hold. This narrows the fittings choice based on where in the system they will be used. Learn what goes where in an HPLC system.

Often, when making connections, people want more information on the amount of “dead volume” in the connection. However, most people who inquire about the dead volume are really wanting to know just how much internal volume exists within a connection, not how much of that internal volume is considered “dead.”
