Permanently laser etched 2D code on base, ensuring a permanent link between sample and data
2D codes readable without removing tubes from racks
High contrast 2D codes are more reliably readable in frost or condensation conditions
100% quality control, each tube is tested to ensure both readability and uniqueness
Leak tested to ensure sample security
External thread tubes provide greater working volume than internal thread tubes
Suitable for sealing with screw caps
Suitable for cryogenic storage (Not for use in liquid phase nitrogen)

Screw Caps

A deforming compression seal more effective than a silicone alternative
A non-silicone seal means the cap can never be over-tightened
Caps and tubes are manufactured from the same material, preventing differential expansion during freeze-thaw cycles
A double-start thread engages in a maximum rotation of 180°, thereby facilitating automation

96 format SBS racks

TwistLock: prevents tubes rotating within the rack to enable automated capping and de-capping of screw caps; provided as standard with the option available to remove
TubeLock: prevents tubes from falling out, even in lidless racks; useful in manual workflows; activate by applying pressure on the tube top, clicking it into place; tubes can be ordered pre-locked or non-locked
LidLock: enables racks to withstand a 1m drop test for added sample security
Automatic rack orientation: a unique 2D code rack identifier readable at the same time as the tube 2D code; for automatic rack orientation and secure sample tracking
Direct laser etching: a cutout window on the rack sides allow the linear barcode to be read more easily; linear barcodes can be laser etched directly onto racks
