13mm Green Snap Cap (113146G) Overview
The Globe Scientific 13mm Green Snap Cap (113146G) is a polyethylene closure designed to seat firmly on 13mm glass tubes, 13mm evacuated tubes, and 12mm plastic test tubes. Its snap-fit design lets technicians cap and uncap tubes quickly without threading, keeping sample handling efficient during high-throughput batches.
Molded from polyethylene (PE), this cap resists cracking and offers a consistent fit across compatible tube formats. Green coloring supports visual sample coding and rack organization, helping teams separate workflows or distinguish sample groups at a glance.
Supplied in bags of 1000, the 113146G suits clinical, research, and educational labs that consume closures in volume. Procurement teams can standardize on a single SKU across multiple tube types, reducing inventory complexity.

Laboratory Applications
Snap caps close tubes used for sample storage, transport, and short-term containment across clinical and research settings. Phlebotomy stations, specimen-processing benches, and chemistry workflows rely on quick-seating closures to limit evaporation and contamination between handling steps.
Color-coded caps help labs build organized racks and sorting protocols. Green caps can flag a specific assay, patient group, or storage condition, letting technicians scan trays and identify samples without opening tubes.
