Autoclave Tape Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Autoclave Tape (Product Code: SLE/CH/188) is a self-adhesive sterilisation indicator tape made of semicreped paper, used to seal and mark items before they go into an autoclave so that processed and unprocessed loads can be told apart at a glance. Each reel is 50 m long and 25 mm wide, the tape stays affixed for 18 months, and it sticks to plastic, metal, fabric, paper and cardboard. It is a small but constant item of microbiology lab equipment in teaching, clinical and research laboratories, supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala.

Specifications

Typical Use

Technicians tear off a strip to close a wrapped instrument pack, to hold foil over the mouth of a flask of culture medium, or to mark a filled waste bag before loading the autoclave. After the cycle, the indicator markings show which items have been exposed to the sterilisation process, so nobody mistakes a fresh bundle of media bottles for one still waiting to be processed. Because the tape grips cloth wraps, glass, metal trays and cardboard alike, a single reel covers most of the jobs in a prep room, and labs usually order it together with their other lab consumables.

Apply the tape to a clean, dry surface and press it down firmly along its length. The semicreped paper stretches slightly, which helps it follow the curve of a bottle neck or the fold of a wrap. Keep spare reels in a cool, dry cupboard away from steam lines.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much tape is on one reel?
Each reel holds 50 m of 25 mm wide tape.

Does a changed indicator mean the item is sterile?
No. Indicator tape shows that an item has been through the sterilisation process; it does not by itself prove sterility. Follow your laboratory’s validation procedure for confirming autoclave performance.

How long will the tape stay stuck?
The tape is listed to remain affixed for 18 months once applied.

What surfaces can it be used on?
Plastic, metal, fabrics, paper and cardboard. Surfaces should be clean and dry for good adhesion.

Can I write on the tape?
It is made of semicreped paper. If you plan to write dates or initials on it, test your pen or marker on a strip first to see how it survives a cycle.
