Description
Nalgene™ push-in caps for plastic centrifuge tubes are autoclavable closures fitted with a pull tab for easy removal. They are intended for round and conical Nalgene centrifuge tubes with a 16 mm outer diameter, providing a practical seal for routine laboratory centrifugation workflows.
This article is part of Screw caps & closures, in Stoppers, caps & closures.
These Thermo Scientific Nalgene tube caps belong to the Nalgene™ product line and are supplied as a case of 20 pieces (20 per pack). The push-in design supports straightforward handling when preparing samples in plastic centrifuge tubes, while the integrated pull tab helps remove the stopper cleanly after use. Autoclavability supports reuse under standard laboratory sterilisation practice where appropriate for the application.
Designed specifically as centrifuge tube caps for 16 mm OD tubes from manufacturer Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics, they serve as dedicated accessories for Nalgene plastic centrifuge tubes in research, quality control and general laboratory settings. The pack format of 20 pieces suits bench stock and shared lab supplies without excess bulk.

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.
