Borosilicate Glass Bottle with Aluminium Screw Cap and Silicone Gasket

Borosilicate glass bottle with aluminium screw cap and integrated silicone gasket. Built for microbiology: withstands autoclave cycles, seals reliably and does not contaminate contents.

Features

• Material: Borosilicate glass
• Cap: Aluminium screw cap with silicone gasket
• Closure: Hermetic — silicone gasket does not deform under autoclave conditions
• Sterilisation: Autoclavable at 121 °C

Applications

Particularly suited to microbiology: preparation and storage of culture media, strain conservation, buffer solutions and sterile reagents. Also suitable for analytical chemistry where a hermetic seal and thermal resistance are required.

The aluminium cap is the standard in clinical, industrial and research microbiology laboratories — easy to identify, easy to open with gloves on.

Technical Data

• Bottle material: Borosilicate glass
• Cap material: Aluminium
• Gasket: Silicone
• Autoclave: Yes, 121 °C

Practical Advantages

Aluminium does not corrode or seize — opens without effort after autoclaving. Silicone maintains the seal cycle after cycle. Borosilicate glass does not leach compounds into contents and withstands the thermal changes involved in the sterilisation process.
