Globe Scientific 90mL Tite-Rite Container - 6220 | Leak-Tight Pneumatic Tube Safe

When biological samples must be transported through hospital pneumatic tube systems, a standard screwcap is not enough. The Globe Scientific 6220 Tite-Rite Container provides the ultimate in leak-tight storage and transport. Engineered from durable polypropylene (PP), this 90mL (3oz) sterile container features a specialized cap design with an expanded inner liner. When closed, this liner compresses against the uppermost walls and top rim of the container, creating an exceptionally robust, air-tight seal that withstands pressure differentials and physical impact.

These containers are supplied sterile with the white polyethylene (PE) screw caps pre-attached, ensuring the interior remains completely aseptic prior to use. A patient ID label is included for clear documentation, and molded graduations allow for rapid visual confirmation of sample volume. Tite-Rite containers are the trusted choice for preventing costly and dangerous sample leaks during transit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why are Tite-Rite containers better for pneumatic tubes?
Standard specimen cups can pop open or leak under the sudden pressure changes and impacts experienced in pneumatic tube systems. Tite-Rite containers feature an engineered compressible inner liner that forms an air-tight seal capable of withstanding these forces.

Are these containers individually wrapped?
No, they are not individually wrapped, but they are sterile because the caps are securely pre-attached at the factory, maintaining a sterile interior environment until opened.

Does this model include a thermometer strip?
No, the 6220 model does not include a thermometer strip. If you need temperature verification for drug screening, consider the 6236 or 6238 models.
