QuickConnect™ is a low-cost, small, robust and easy-to use microfluidic connector that enables instantaneous, automatically-aligned capillary tube connection. QuickConnect™ ends are roughly ¼ inch in diameter and eliminate the need for elaborate and tedious manual assembly i.e., no more threading adapters, gaskets, tube preparation, gluing, etc!
QuickConnect's rapid, straight-forward, snap-together mechanism eliminates leaks and bubbles, both of which are problematic in microfluidic applications. QuickConnect™ is pressure tested to 100 psi which is 3X higher than pressures experienced with most microfluidic applications.
