These screw cap tubes are expertly designed for the safe preparation, centrifugation, and storage of samples. Manufactured from high-purity, medical-grade polypropylene, they are suitable for a vast range of temperatures, from cryogenic storage to autoclaving. The defining feature is the leak-proof screw cap, which is fitted with an EPDM O-ring to ensure maximum sealability, preventing both evaporation and leakage. Available in conical or self-standing designs, and with knurled options that lock into special racks for convenient single-handed operation, these tubes are a versatile and reliable choice for any laboratory.
