Vial Cryogenic Classic 2.0ml Graduated Sterile Diameter 12.5mm Height 49mm Free-Standing Internally Threaded with Silicone Washer Pack of 100

Designed for safe, ultra-low temperature storage, of biological material, human or animal cells, Alpha has three ranges of CE marked cryogenic storage vials.
All products in this range are certified free from RNase, DNase, pyrogens and DNA. Alpha Laboratories’ cryogenic vials come in either free-standing or round-bottom base designs. All types have an internal rounded base for easy recovery of samples.
Strong vial and cap – a special grade of polypropylene, chosen for its consistent strength, is used to make all our vials. As a result, both vial and cap can withstand the harsh -196C temperature of vapour phase liquid nitrogen, and the thick wall makes the vial almost unbreakable.
Please note that they are not designed for use in the liquid phase.

Secure seal – the cap and tube are made from the same material so with temperature change, they shrink and expand in unison ensuring an equally secure seal both at room temperature and at low cryogenic temperatures.
Fast opening/closing – 1 ¼ turns is all that is required to close the cap securely. This is important when large quantities of vials are being used because it saves time and means there is less chance of the cap not being closed securely.
Simple one-handed operation – all free-standing vials, when used with a workstation (LW3400B or LW3400R), enable you to unscrew vials with one hand. Vertical ribs facilitate cap removal
Clear graduations – at 100μl intervals to facilitate reading of your sample volume.
Large white marking area – for sample labelling and identification.
Tubes can be colour coded with a cap insert (LW3339 range) and are compatible with most storage systems. Cap inserts are available in 11 different colours. Cap inserts are not compatible with LW3439.
Round bottom vials only can be centrifuged, at up to 17,000g.
Sterile – all vials are gamma irradiated to ensure absolute sterility.
Certified free from RNase, DNase, Pyrogens, human DNA and metals
Supplied in tamper-evident, re-sealable bags – clean and sterile.

A range of Cryoboxes are available for organised storage of samples in cryovials. See the racks section of our catalogue or website for further details.

The Classic’ Range
– designed for basic security
Internally Threaded with Silicone Washer between cap and vial ensures a positive leak-proof seal at all temperatures. Designed to improve safety compared with standard screw cap microcentrifuge tubes.
‘The Classic’ uses a square section washer that compresses tightly between the cap and top of the tube wall ensuring a positive leak-proof seal at all temperatures.
