LDPE Low-Retention Pipet Tips for BBL® Fibrometer Coagulation Analyzers — Caplugs® Evergreen 230-1022-02K
These low-density polyethylene (LDPE) pipet tips are dimensionally matched replacements for BBL® Fibrometer coagulation instruments, supplied non-sterile in convenient 1000/Bag bulk format for high-volume clinical coagulation workflows. The natural-colored LDPE construction delivers inherent flexibility and low sample retention — two properties that matter in prothrombin time (PT), partial thromboplastin time (PTT), and fibrinogen assays where minimizing plasma carryover is critical. Available under part number 230-1022-02K, these tips offer clinical hematology and coagulation laboratories a cost-effective, instrument-matched alternative to OEM supply.

Compatibility
These tips are designed as direct-fit replacements for BBL® Fibrometer coagulation instruments, with dimensions matched to the instrument's pipet tip channels. Laboratories currently sourcing OEM BBL® Fibrometer tips can use 230-1022-02K as a cost-effective compatible replacement. As with any consumable transition, verifying dimensional fit against your specific instrument configuration before full deployment is recommended.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these tips sterile?
No — they are supplied non-sterile, which is appropriate for BBL® Fibrometer PT/PTT workflows where tip sterility is not required by the instrument protocol. If your laboratory protocol requires sterile tips, please contact us to discuss alternatives.
What makes LDPE a good choice for coagulation testing tips?
Low-density polyethylene is naturally flexible and exhibits very low sample retention, which helps ensure complete sample delivery and minimizes carryover between plasma specimens and coagulation reagents — both important factors in accurate PT and PTT results.
How do I confirm these tips will fit my BBL® Fibrometer instrument?
These tips are dimensionally matched for BBL® Fibrometer coagulation analyzers. If you are transitioning from OEM supply, we recommend testing a small quantity against your specific instrument configuration to confirm fit before committing to full bulk orders.
What pack size and ordering format is available?
These tips are packaged 1000 per bag, a bulk format well suited to high-volume clinical coagulation laboratories looking to minimize reorder frequency and maintain consistent tip inventory.
