Nanopore technologies detect molecules by measuring changes in electrical current as they pass through tiny pores. Used in DNA and RNA sequencing and molecular research, these systems rely on precise assemblies, controlled fluid handling, and sensitive electronics. Contamination, fluid leakage, or unwanted electrical pathways can affect measurement quality.

Explore our PEEK, PEEK GF30, PFA, and PVDF components and fasteners for nanopore research equipment. PEEK combines mechanical strength, electrical insulation, and resistance to many laboratory chemicals, making suitable grades useful for instrument supports, spacers, and fluid-handling fittings. PEEK GF30 provides increased stiffness for structural components that need to maintain their dimensions under load.

PFA offers broad chemical resistance and is available in high-purity grades for demanding fluid-handling applications. PVDF combines chemical resistance, low moisture absorption, and mechanical strength, making it a candidate for fittings, housings, and selected fastening components exposed to laboratory fluids.

From screws and washers to custom connectors and supports, polymer components provide versatile options for compact, corrosion-resistant assemblies. Sample-contact parts require assessment of chemical compatibility, extractables, particle generation, and interactions with biological molecules to protect sample integrity.
