Universal Snap Cap Tube Closures - Polyethylene Blood Collection Tube Caps for Laboratory Safety

Professional-Grade Universal Laboratory Tube Closures

These precision-engineered universal polyethylene snap caps provide essential protection and contamination control for laboratory blood collection procedures. Specifically designed to fit most standard 12 mm, 13 mm, and 16 mm evacuated glass blood collection tubes, these versatile closures deliver reliable recapping solutions across diverse phlebotomy and clinical laboratory applications. The universal sizing eliminates the need for multiple cap inventories, streamlining laboratory supply management while ensuring consistent sample protection protocols.

Advanced Safety & Contamination Prevention

Engineered with flexible, precision-molded low-density polyethylene (LDPE) construction, these closures create a secure barrier that effectively protects laboratory personnel and work areas from aerosols containing highly infectious microorganisms. The robust design guards valuable specimens against cross-contamination while simultaneously protecting laboratory environments from potential infection risks and sample spillage incidents. This dual-protection system is critical for maintaining biosafety standards in clinical, research, and diagnostic laboratory settings where exposure to bloodborne pathogens and infectious materials is a constant concern.

Ergonomic Design for Efficient Laboratory Workflows

Featuring innovative double thumb tabs, these snap caps are engineered for effortless one-handed application and removal, significantly improving laboratory efficiency during high-volume sample processing. The ergonomic tab design reduces hand fatigue during repetitive capping procedures while ensuring secure, consistent closure application. The precision-molded construction ensures each cap fits firmly and reliably on the tube, maintaining sample integrity throughout handling, transport, and storage phases of the laboratory workflow.

Durable Performance Under Rigorous Laboratory Conditions

These closures maintain structural integrity and secure fit even under the most demanding laboratory procedures, including high-speed centrifugation operations. The low-density polyethylene material provides the optimal balance of flexibility for easy application and rigidity for maintaining a secure seal during mechanical processing. Color-coded options enable rapid visual sample identification and organization, supporting efficient laboratory workflows and reducing the risk of sample mix-ups in busy clinical environments.
