Installing GC Columns 2
5977 Series MSD Operation Manual 43
5 Using a ceramic column cutter, trim the tubing at the small end of the
ferrule leaving approximately 0.3 mm of tubing extending beyond the
ferrule (Figure 8 on page 43).
It is important that the ceramic column cutter have one side dedicated to
only make contact with the column and the other side dedicated to riding
on the edge of the metallic SilTite ferrule. This preserves the ceramic edge
sharpness which is necessary to making good column cuts.
NOTE
It is important that the tube end does not extend beyond 0.5 mm from the end of the ferrule.
