ICP & IC-MS Torch Repair
Precision Glassblowing repairs hundreds of torches each month. We can replace the outer shield, base or sidearm of most broken or used torches for much less than the cost of a replacement torch. Ceramic base torches for TJA instruments may be rebuilt multiple times at a very moderate price. Available with or without a new injector, rebuilt TJA torches receive all new precision i.d./o.d. quartz inner and outer tubes and new argon fittings with the used base remaining as the only aspect which separates it from a brand new OEM torch. Once any torch has been rebuilt, it passes through the same QC program as our new torches, guaranteeing it meets original manufacturer’s specifications. Scroll down for more information and examples of what can be repaired. Most broken items can be repaired in 4 to 5 weeks. A rush service is available for an additional charge. Call 303.693.7329 or e-mail for pricing or information.
General Scientific Glassware Repair
Precision Glassblowing can repair spray chambers, cells and most general lab items. Common lab glass repairs include replacing stopcocks, replacing broken ground joints, fixing cracks in flasks and replacing sidearms on soxhlets and CLLE’s. Some simpler glassware may not be cost-effective to repair but in many cases repairs can save $100’s over the cost of replacement. Current lead times will be included with your final quote. A rush service is available for an additional charge. Call 303.693.7329 or e-mail for pricing or information.
Glassware Modification
Don’t settle with “I’ll make do”, if your glass part isn’t exactly what you want. We may be able to modify it to meet your needs. From adding or replacing joints, to modifying the layout, you can get what you need. For easy modifications you can simply add a note near the middle of our REPAIR FORM; but for most situations, it is best to give us a call (303.693.7329) or e-mail us to discuss the required changes you’d like made. We can clarify any questions and get the ball rolling on an estimate for you.
