Our Capabilities
What types of tubes does Camsco manufacture?
Camsco manufactures a full range of thermal desorption sorbent tubes including 1/4-inch stainless steel, inert-coated stainless steel, and glass tubes in standard and custom configurations. We also produce cold traps, focusing traps, DAAMS tubes, and specialty tubes compatible with instruments from Markes, PerkinElmer, Gerstel, Teledyne Tekmar, and others.
