Globe Scientific Snap Cap, 16mm, Green Overview
The Globe Scientific Snap Cap (SKU 113144G) is a 16mm polyethylene closure engineered for 16mm glass and evacuated tubes. Its green color supports rapid visual sorting on crowded racks, while the snap-fit design seats firmly by hand for fast capping during high-throughput workflows.
Molded from polyethylene, this cap delivers consistent fit across compatible 16mm tube formats. Technicians gain a reliable, single-motion seal that reduces fumbling at the bench. Laboratories standardizing on color-coded caps can assign green to specific sample types, protocols, or departments.
Each bag holds 1000 caps, sized for departments that consume closures in volume. Procurement teams ordering through LabSupplies.com can scale to master cases for centralized stockrooms and multi-site distribution.

Laboratory Applications
Snap caps close 16mm tubes used across clinical, research, and diagnostic settings. Phlebotomy and specimen-handling teams apply them to evacuated tubes for secure transport between collection points and analyzers. Color coding with green helps staff segregate samples by protocol without relabeling.
Storage and archiving workflows benefit from a uniform closure that snaps on quickly during batch processing. Sample-prep stations, sorting lines, and biobanks rely on consistent 16mm caps to keep tube inventories organized. Assign green caps to a defined workflow stage to streamline visual auditing.
