15mL Sterile Test Tube with Attached Red Screw Cap Overview
The Globe Scientific Test Tube with Attached Red Screw Cap (SKU 6157) measures 16 x 120mm and holds a 15mL working volume. Each tube is molded from polystyrene (PS) and arrives sterile, individually wrapped to protect sample integrity before use.
An attached red screw cap stays with the tube, reducing the chance of mismatched or lost closures during busy workflows. Color-coded caps also help technicians sort and identify tubes quickly at the bench.
Supplied in a case of 500 individually wrapped units, this tube suits labs that need a consistent, ready-to-use consumable for routine sample handling and storage.
