Globe Scientific Snap Cap, 12/13mm, Green Overview
The Globe Scientific Snap Cap (SKU 113142G) is a green polyethylene closure sized for 12/13mm vacuum tubes and standard test tubes. Each cap snaps into place to secure samples during handling, transport, and short-term storage. Color coding in green helps technicians sort and identify tubes at a glance across busy workflows.
Molded from polyethylene (PE), these caps deliver a consistent fit on compatible 12/13mm tubes. Lab teams use the green coding to separate sample sets, track collection rounds, or distinguish assay groups without extra labeling. Bagged in quantities of 1000, the format suits high-throughput benches that consume closures daily.
LabSupplies.com stocks this Globe Scientific item for laboratories that standardize on dependable, repeatable consumables. Snap-style application speeds capping compared to threaded closures, keeping line work moving.

Laboratory Applications
Green snap caps cover 12/13mm vacuum and test tubes across clinical, research, and diagnostic settings. Technicians seal blood collection tubes, sample aliquots, and prepared reagents to limit spills and contamination during centrifugation prep and transport. Color separation lets teams batch specimens by patient group, study arm, or processing stage.
Phlebotomy stations, microbiology labs, and chemistry benches rely on consistent closures to keep tube racks organized. Snap application supports fast, one-handed capping at high volume, while the PE construction handles routine sample handling. Use the green code to flag priority or recheck samples within mixed racks.
