47000-606
The AutoGrid De-clipping Tool is used to de-clip and recover a TEM grid from an AutoGrid ring. Normally, clipping a grid into an AutoGrid is considered a permanent modification, but this tool allows the grid to be safely removed and used on both AutoGrid and non-AutoGrid-based systems.
An AutoGrid is slid into the dovetail of the tool under liquid nitrogen using a set of AutoGrid Tweezers (#47000-600). Then, using a Hook Micro-Tool (#13688B) with Handle (#13675), the C-clip can be unseated, releasing the grid from the AutoGrid ring.
The AutoGrid De-clipping Tool is made of stainless steel and fits into the cryo grid box pocket of any clipping station.
Note: AutoGrids are a one-time use consumable that can become damaged after de-clipping. We do not recommend reusing AutoGrid Rings and C-clips.
