Product DetailsÂ
Developed to exceed the demands of sample security, management and tracking in modern high-density storage applications. Designed for reduced sample loss: significant amounts of liquid can become trapped within a standard design screw cap, resulting in potential loss of valuable sample.
Studies demonstrate that Azenta Life Sciences’ cap design, with a reduced hollow, reduces this effect by lowering liquid retention whilst maintaining seal quality. This hollow area on the cap can catch a sample, and surface tension then makes cap removal difficult.
Compatible with all Azenta Life Sciences sample storage tubes with a screw top, caps are available for use with either external or internal thread Azenta Life Sciences screw top tubes. Manufactured from high-quality virgin polypropylene.

OptionsÂ
External thread screw caps, standard
- A deforming compression seal is more effective than a silicone alternative
- A non-silicone seal means the cap can never be over-tightened
- Caps and tubes are manufactured from the same material, preventing differential expansion during freeze-thaw cycles
- A double-start thread engages in a maximum rotation of 180, thereby facilitating automation
External thread screw caps, automation-friendly
- Automation-friendly options, available in Azenta Life Sciences cap carriers for use with automated capping/decapping systems
- Automation-friendly screw caps provide flexibility to use tubes across a range of industry-recognised automated tube handling platforms
- Internal thread screw caps, automation-friendly
- Automation-friendly co-moulded screw caps for internal thread tubes eliminate the possibility of over-tightening
- Co-moulded caps eliminate the failures in caps using a silicone O-ring
- Double start thread engages in a maximum rotation of 180, facilitating automation
