3 Way Stopcocks TICOMI Disposable Luer Lock Pack of 16 Blue

Description

Product Overview

The TICOMI 3 Way Stopcocks are engineered to meet the demanding requirements of modern laboratories, teaching environments, and hobbyist projects. Constructed from high‑impact polycarbonate, each valve offers exceptional durability while maintaining a lightweight profile that simplifies handling. The Luer lock connections, standardized at 0.31 inches, guarantee a secure, leak‑free interface with compatible tubing and syringes, reducing the risk of accidental spills or contamination.

Every unit in the pack of 16 is individually sterilized and sealed in independent packaging, ensuring that users receive a pristine, ready‑to‑use component each time. The vibrant blue color not only provides visual distinction during multi‑valve setups but also aids in quick identification during complex experimental procedures. With a compact footprint of 2 x 0.8 x 0.8 inches and a weight of just 0.16 ounces per valve, these stopcocks can be easily stored in drawer compartments, bench trays, or portable kits.

Designed for versatility, the 3‑way configuration enables fluid routing between three ports, allowing users to direct flow, mix solutions, or isolate sections of a system with precision. The firm Luer lock mechanism ensures a tight seal that resists back‑pressure, making these stopcocks suitable for a wide range of applications, from low‑volume pipetting to moderate‑pressure pneumatic circuits.

Usage

These stopcocks excel in educational laboratories where students explore fluid dynamics, chemical reactions, and biological assays. Their disposable nature eliminates the need for time‑consuming cleaning protocols, allowing instructors to focus on teaching core concepts rather than equipment maintenance. In research settings, the reliable Luer lock connection supports reproducible experiments, especially when precise timing and flow control are critical.

Beyond traditional lab work, the TICOMI 3 Way Stopcocks are ideal for DIY enthusiasts and makers engaged in home‑grown pneumatic or hydraulic projects. Whether constructing a custom air‑blow system, a miniature fluidic circuit, or a prototype medical device, the valves provide a dependable interface that integrates seamlessly with standard Luer‑compatible components.

For field applications, the sterile packaging ensures that each valve remains contaminant‑free until the moment of use, making them suitable for on‑site sampling, environmental testing, or point‑of‑care diagnostics where sterility cannot be compromised.

FAQ

What size Luer connections do these stopcocks use?

All ports feature a 0.31‑inch Luer lock connection, compatible with standard Luer‑type syringes, tubing, and adapters used in laboratory and medical applications.

Can the stopcocks be reused after sterilization?

These stopcocks are intended for single‑use applications. Re‑sterilizing may compromise the integrity of the polycarbonate material and the Luer lock seal, potentially leading to leaks.

Are the valves suitable for high‑pressure pneumatic systems?

While the valves perform well under moderate pressure, they are optimized for low to medium pressure fluid control typical of laboratory and educational settings. For high‑pressure applications, a valve specifically rated for those conditions is recommended.

What is the recommended storage condition for the unopened packs?

Store the sealed packages in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight. Maintaining a temperature range of 15‑25 °C (59‑77 °F) helps preserve the material properties and sterility.

How does the blue color benefit my experiments?

The distinct blue coloration provides quick visual identification, especially when multiple stopcocks are used in a single setup. This reduces the chance of misconnection and streamlines workflow during complex procedures.
