Description

Simport Snaptwist Scintillation Vials. Can be used for liquid scintillation counting, gamma counting, chromatography, sample storage and culturing. It will fit very nicely into the LKB and Packard Varisette counters. The shoulderless vial features a full width opening of 12.5mm and the overall dimensions are 16 x 57mm. The closures are made of high-flow polypropylene and are a true time saver. The vials can be securely sealed by simply snapping the caps on; removal of caps requires an easy 1/4 turn (twist). The ease with which these caps can be manipulated eliminates the danger of spillage associated with other push-on/pull-off caps. A built-in positive lock prevents the cap from popping off because of a small build-up of pressure in the vial.

Frequently asked questions

What are the high-efficiency vial applications?

The Simport Snaptwist Vials are versatile tools designed for critical, high-throughput laboratory tasks. Their primary applications include:

  • Liquid Scintillation Counting and Gamma Counting
  • Chromatography
  • General sample storage
  • Biological culturing

A key feature enhancing efficiency and safety is the innovative Snap-on/Twist-off closure system. Caps snap securely shut to prevent spillage, and they require only a quick 1/4 turn twist for non-destructive removal. The vials are also sized (16 mm x 57 mm) to fit seamlessly into LKB and Packard Varisette counters.

How secure is the Snaptwist closure system?

The Snaptwist closure system is engineered for exceptional security and efficiency, helping to minimize the risk of spillage and sample loss during critical lab procedures.

Key security features include:

  • Pressure Resistant Sealing: The cap incorporates a built-in positive lock mechanism. This crucial feature prevents the closure from accidentally popping off, even if minor internal pressure builds up within the vial.
  • Secure & Fast Sealing: The cap snaps securely into place to form an immediate seal.
  • Easy Removal: Removal is quick and easy, requiring only an easy quarter-turn twist (1/4 turn). This design saves time and avoids the potential spillage issues associated with standard push-on/pull-off caps.
Which popular counters are these vials compatible with?

These vials are specifically sized and engineered for broad compatibility with standard laboratory counting equipment. They are designed to fit neatly into LKB and Packard Varisette counters.

What are the precise vial dimensions?

The Simport Snaptwist Scintillation Vials are engineered with specific dimensions to ensure compatibility with laboratory equipment, including LKB and Packard Varisette counters. The key measurements are:

  • Overall Dimensions: 16 mm (diameter) x 57 mm (length).
  • Vial Opening Diameter: The full-width, shoulderless design allows for a large opening of 12.5 mm, which simplifies sample introduction.
What high-quality materials are used for the vials and caps?

The Simport Snaptwist Vials and their corresponding caps are constructed from durable, laboratory-grade plastics: Polyethylene (PE) and Polypropylene (PP). These materials ensure robust chemical resistance and maintain sample integrity across various critical lab applications.

These vials are offered in two specific material configurations, with 1,000 units provided per case:

  • Configuration 1: Polyethylene Vial body with a High-Flow Polypropylene Cap.
  • Configuration 2: Polypropylene Vial body with a Polyethylene Cap.

This choice of material is essential for supporting the innovative Snap-On/Twist-Off Closure System, which provides a secure, spill-proof seal and incorporates a positive lock to prevent cap detachment under pressure.

How many vials are included per case?

Each case of Simport Snaptwist Scintillation Vials includes 1000 vials and their corresponding caps, providing a substantial supply for your laboratory applications.

Are these vials compatible with specific counters?

Yes, these Simport Snaptwist vials are designed for high compatibility and seamless integration into standard laboratory counting systems. They are optimized for convenience and reliable fit.

  • Confirmed Counter Compatibility: They are specifically sized to fit neatly into LKB and Packard Varisette counters, ensuring reliable performance for your counting workflows.
  • Optimal Design: The vials feature a shoulderless design and standard dimensions (16 mm D x 57 mm L).
  • Easy Access: They provide a full 12.5 mm opening for easy sample loading and manipulation.
  • Versatile Use: Beyond liquid scintillation counting, they are suitable for gamma counting, chromatography, general sample storage, and biological culturing.
What vial and cap material configurations are available?

The Simport Snaptwist Scintillation Vials are offered in two distinct material configurations to ensure optimal compatibility with various laboratory solvents and applications. Both configurations are supplied in cases of 1,000 vials and corresponding Snaptwist caps.

The two available material options are:

  • Polyethylene Vial paired with a Polypropylene Cap.
  • Polypropylene Vial paired with a Polyethylene Cap.
