Vortex Plugs & Positioning Rods

Vortex Plugs and Positioning Rods

Vortex Plugs are recommended for spinning experiments where a vortex is created in your sample. PTFE flexible fins fit snugly into Precision Thin-Wall NMR tubes. A positioning rod is needed to place the Vortex Plug at the correct height in the NMR tube. An air vent in the plug’s centre assures easy insertion. Not recommended for variable temperature experiments.

Vortex Plugs

Benefits:

  • Reduces turbulence in the liquid column.
  • Prevents sample mixing issues that degrade resolution.

  • Improves field homogeneity by stabilizing the sample column.

  • Minimizes susceptibility artifacts caused by air–liquid interfaces.

Positioning Rods

Benefits:

  • Ensures that the plug is accurately located just above the liquid sample.

  • Prevents accidental shifting of the plug during handling or spinning.

  • Helps maintain reproducibility between measurements.
