Description
Flexible stopper for sample tubes with Ø 16 mm is a polyethylene closure made for reliable sealing of laboratory sample tubes during processing, storage and transport. In natural colour, the stopper remains flexible so that it adapts to the tube opening, supporting a snug fit that helps limit spillage and evaporation while staying simple to apply and remove. Produced from polyethylene, it is suited to routine sample handling in analytical, clinical and educational laboratories where dependable, single-use or reusable-style tube closures are required. This version is sized for tubes with a 16 mm diameter; the same flexible stopper concept is also available for 13 mm tubes. The pack contains 1000 pieces and has a net weight of 1,000 kg, making it practical for continuous bench use and stock replenishment. From manufacturer Labbox, these natural-colour polyethylene stoppers offer a neutral, unobtrusive option for sealing sample tubes without colour coding, fitting smoothly into standard laboratory workflows and consumable inventories.
This article is part of Rubber & silicone stoppers, in Stoppers, caps & closures.

Questions about Flexible stopper for test tubes, for Ø 16 mm tubes, clear
What is this article?
Flexible stopper for test tubes, for Ø 16 mm tubes, clear is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Labbox for laboratory use. It sits in Rubber & silicone stoppers, inside Stoppers, caps & closures, in Labware.
A rubber or silicone stopper is pushed into a mouth. The size number corresponds to a top and bottom diameter. Silicone survives higher temperatures and more autoclave cycles. Natural rubber is attacked by oils and by some solvents.
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.
