Rows that differ are in bold.

An insert is a small glass tube that sits inside a standard 2 ml vial. It keeps a small sample within reach of the autosampler needle, so you can inject from 150 to 300 µl without wasting sample.

Step 1: Match the insert to the vial neck

VialInsert sizeVolumes in this range
8-425 screw vials31 × 5 mm or 29 × 5 mm150 µl and 250 µl
9 mm short-thread vials31 × 6 mm or 29 × 5.7 mm250 µl and 300 µl

The insert has to sit straight in the vial neck. An insert that is too narrow can tilt and the needle may hit the glass; one that is too wide will not go in. The normal vial cap closes over the insert.

Step 2: Bottom shape

TypeChoose it when
Flat bottomYou want the largest volume and the lowest price per piece
Conical bottomThe sample is very small: liquid collects in the tip, so the needle can draw almost all of it
Conical interior with polymer feetYou want a conical insert that stands on plastic feet, which keep it centred in the vial and cushion it

Step 3: Needle depth

Check the needle height setting on your autosampler. The needle must stop above the bottom of the insert; with a conical insert it can go lower than with a flat one. Run a test injection with a blank before a sequence.

One-piece alternative

If you prefer not to assemble inserts, the 9 mm and 11 mm vial ranges include 0.3 ml vials with a base-bonded micro-insert built in.

Inserts are sold in packs of 100.

Questions buyers ask

Which 9 mm vials do these inserts fit?

Standard 2 ml 9 mm short-thread vials, 11.6 × 32 mm, such as the EROHE 9 mm screw vials.

Should I use an insert or a 0.3 ml vial with built-in insert?

Separate inserts let you keep one vial type for all samples. Vials with a bonded insert save assembly time and cannot tilt.

Which 9 mm insert is best for very small samples?

The conical inserts, because the sample collects in the tip within reach of the needle.
