Description
Nalgene™ push-in caps for plastic centrifuge tubes are autoclavable closures equipped with a pull tab for straightforward removal after centrifugation or storage. Intended for Nalgene round and conical centrifuge tubes, they match a 17 mm closure size and are specified for tubes with a 17 mm outer diameter. The push-in design provides a secure seal for sample handling workflows where plastic tubes are preferred in life-science, clinical, or analytical laboratories. Offered as a pack of twenty from manufacturer Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics, the set supports regular laboratory replenishment without excess inventory. Gross weight is 0,040 kg per pack. As part of the Nalgene™ product line, these tube caps help maintain sample containment during processing while remaining convenient to open thanks to the integrated pull tab. They are a practical accessory choice for laboratories standardising on compatible plastic centrifuge formats that require autoclavable, easy-to-remove push-in closures for day-to-day tube work.

Questions about Nalgene™ Friction-Fit Polypropylene Closures for Plastic Centrifuge
What is this article?
Nalgene™ Friction-Fit Polypropylene Closures for Plastic Centrifuge is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics for laboratory use. It sits in Screw caps & closures, inside Stoppers, caps & closures, in Labware.
A screw cap has a thread and a liner. The thread has to match the bottle. The liner has to survive the liquid: a pulp liner fails in a solvent that a PTFE-faced liner ignores. The colour of the cap is not the specification.
A closure is the part that decides whether a bottle stays shut and whether the contents attack the seal. A ground-glass stopper matches a ground neck. A screw cap needs the right thread and a liner that survives the liquid. Rubber and silicone stoppers push into a mouth. The liner, not the colour of the cap, is the chemical choice. The vessels they close are indexed under ISO laboratory glassware.
