Application Profile
In flask-mounted freeze-drying, the dry flask cap seals a sample flask so it can be evacuated on the manifold and then closed under vacuum for storage or transfer without reintroducing moisture — protecting the lyophilized product. The straight glass-joint version (212570) is the standard orientation; a 45° bent version (212571) suits manifold geometries where an angled port is easier to reach. A 5-pack matches a set of dry flasks so a whole cycle can be capped at once.
These are the manufacturer's matched caps for the DC401 dry flasks, so the ground-glass joints hold vacuum reliably.
