500 mL Wide-Mouth Squeeze Wash Bottles, Polyethylene with Screwcap — Case of 12
The Globe Scientific 500 mL Squeeze Wash Bottle delivers controlled, single-handed dispensing of rinse water, buffers, and common solvents at the bench. A wide-mouth opening speeds refilling and reduces spills, while the integrated screwcap and angled delivery tube support glassware rinsing, gel staining wash steps, and routine equipment decontamination. Color options let labs segregate fluids and minimize cross-contamination.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the bottle and cap made from?
The bottle is molded from polyethylene (PE) and ships with a matching screwcap and angled delivery tube. This material handles aqueous solutions, dilute acids and bases, and alcohols well, but is not recommended for aromatic or chlorinated solvents.
How many bottles come in a pack?
Each SKU is sold as a case of 12 bottles at the listed per-pack price. Colors are packed separately, so order the yellow, red, or blue SKU to match your color-coding scheme.
Why choose a wide-mouth design?
The wide-mouth opening makes refilling faster and cleaner than narrow-neck bottles, reducing spills when topping off with water, buffers, or cleaning solutions during high-throughput bench work.
Can these bottles be autoclaved?
Polyethylene wash bottles are not autoclavable, as PE deforms under steam sterilization temperatures. Use chemical disinfection or replace bottles per your lab's protocol when sterility is required.
