Caplugs® Evergreen 0.2 mL Thin-Wall PCR Tubes with Hinged Caps, PPC, Blue, 1000/Bag
These 0.2 mL thin-wall PCR tubes with attached hinged caps are molded from blue polypropylene copolymer (PPC) for efficient heat transfer during thermal cycling. Lab teams rely on them for routine end-point PCR, qPCR setup, and DNA/RNA amplification where consistent wall thickness and rapid ramp response matter on standard 0.2 mL block thermal cyclers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these PCR tubes sterile or certified nuclease-free?
These tubes are non-sterile as supplied. Confirm your protocol's requirements; for sterile or certified nuclease-free needs, select a corresponding certified product line.
Will the 0.2 mL thin-wall tubes fit standard thermal cyclers?
Yes. The 0.2 mL thin-wall format is designed for standard 0.2 mL thermal cycler blocks, and the thin walls promote rapid, uniform heat transfer during cycling.
Is the cap attached or supplied separately?
The cap is an attached one-piece hinged cap, eliminating loose caps and reducing the chance of cross-contamination during opening and closing.
What material are these tubes made from?
They are molded from polypropylene copolymer (PPC), a resin chosen for its clarity, durability, and thermal performance in amplification applications.
