I am trying to modify the nanoSpray source on an AB SCIEX TT5600+, to use a regular Upchurch Microtee (e.g. UH-700) instead of the somewhat less robust 1/16-380nm fingertight junction that comes with the system. My preferred way of getting the high voltage in would be via platinum wire through one of the T-ports, in a way similar to the Thermo FlexIon source.
Does anyone know of a commercial supplier (Thermo? others?) where I could obtain a platinum wire inset in the right dimensions, or alternatively at least a supplier of platinum wire in the proper dimensions?
Maybe some of you have done this before - any input (supplier, ordering #, tips and tricks) would be greatly appreciated!
Christof,
I am not sure whether they have your specific wires, but we have previously bought from them:

They do also customize items.
You can try to get a platinum wire with electrochemistry researchers or making a search in google with keywords: platinum wire and commercial supplier .Good luck!
You can get it from Strem Chemicals. For example 0.127 mm wire is here: http://www.strem.com/catalog/v/78-0080/53/platinum_7440-06-4
HI Christoph,

Apaprently they have it in different diameters: 0.3/0.4/0.5/1.0 mm; price depends on diameter and varies betwenn 5 and 25€ per cm.
