Reported risk: Following receipt of customer complaints, an investigation identified that a material change made by the supplier has resulted in capillary caps that are more difficult to apply to the capillaries. Attempting to apply these capillary caps to the capillaries could result in spillage of the sample or possible breakage of the glass capillary. Siemens is advising customers to use caution when applying the capillary caps with Siemens multicap glass and multicap-s plastic capillaries to minimize the potential for breakage or bending.
