16mm Yellow Snap Cap (113144Y) Overview
The Globe Scientific 16mm Yellow Snap Cap (113144Y) is a polyethylene closure designed to fit 16mm glass and evacuated tubes. Each cap snaps into place to secure samples during transport, storage, and routine handling. Yellow coloring supports fast visual sorting and color-coded workflows on crowded benches and in busy sample-processing areas.
Molded from polyethylene (PE), this cap delivers a consistent fit across standard 16mm tubes. Technicians can apply and remove caps by hand without specialized tooling. Labs running high sample volumes benefit from the bulk bag format, which keeps replacement closures within easy reach.
Sold by LabSupplies.com as an authorized reseller of Globe Scientific, the 113144Y ships in bags of 1000 with a master case option for facilities that standardize on a single closure type.

Laboratory Applications
Snap caps in this size are used to seal 16mm glass and evacuated tubes across clinical, research, and diagnostic settings. Yellow units help teams assign colors to specimen types, study groups, or processing stages, reducing mix-ups during high-throughput runs. The hand-applied snap fit suits manual workflows where technicians close many tubes in sequence.
These closures serve sample collection, storage, and short-term holding tasks. Facilities standardizing tube handling protocols rely on a consistent cap fit to keep racks organized and contents secured. Color coding with this yellow option supports inventory tracking and chain-of-custody practices in laboratories that document every step.
