Ultra High Purity Nitrogen 99.999% Cylinder

Ultra high purity nitrogen is used as a carrier gas in GC and GC-MS instruments, as a blanket or purge gas in pharmaceutical and biotech facilities, for semiconductor fab processes at SEMI grade standards, laser cutting assist gas, air quality and emissions monitoring calibration, and as a zero or balance gas in specialty calibration gas mixtures. Its inert nature and extreme purity make it critical across these demanding applications.

UHP gases are gases meeting a minimum purity of 99.999% (5N) or greater, as classified in the specialty gas industry. The designation ensures impurity levels are in the low parts-per-million or sub-ppm range. Common UHP gases include nitrogen, helium, argon, hydrogen, and oxygen. They are produced using advanced purification, proprietary cylinder treatment, and NIST traceable blending processes to meet strict analytical and industrial specifications.

SpecGas Inc. offers UHP nitrogen cylinders ranging from 17 liters to 250 FT³ in net gas volume, with gas phase volumes from 58 liters to 2,000 liters. Options include disposable steel and aluminum cylinders, as well as refillable aluminum, steel, and nickel-plated cylinders to suit both laboratory and high-volume industrial needs.

Yes. All UHP nitrogen supplied by SpecGas Inc. is certified to NIST traceable standards, ensuring each cylinder meets nationally recognized purity benchmarks. This traceability is critical for regulatory compliance in calibration, emissions monitoring, and semiconductor manufacturing, and provides documented confidence in the gas purity and composition for quality-sensitive processes.

Yes. UHP nitrogen is widely used as an inert balance gas in specialty calibration gas mixtures, including those containing reactive or toxic components such as H₂S, HCN, NH₃, PH₃, HCl, Cl₂, and SO₂. SpecGas Inc. applies proprietary cylinder treatment processes to ensure stability and accuracy in these reactive gas blends over their full shelf life.

Yes. In addition to domestic U.S. shipments, SpecGas Inc. offers overseas shipping for UHP nitrogen cylinders.
