For those with a Varian 4mm ghxNano probe, I was wondering if anyone has
tried using the tubes, caps, ...etc. that are sold through Wilmad-Labglass
(probably via Rototec-Spintec)?

Varian has apparently decided to stop stocking these, and they are listed as
"backordered".  It's the same story for the Teflon plugs (and probably
everything else ase well) After some prodding, I asked the person if they
would be arriving soon, and I was told that none would come in until I
ordered them.  Also, no expected time-frame could be provided (weeks,
months, years???... nothing!).  

The Wilmad-Labglass website shows pictures of the tubes for the old-style
Nano probe, but not the ones for the ghxNano probe.

Any information or personal experience would be appreciated.  I'll also
contact Wilmad-Labglass to see if they can provide more information.

Thanks in advance,

-Rich Shoemaker
