Global and U.S. Strip Tubes with Attached Caps Market Report, Published by QY Research.

Strip Tubes with Attached Caps are laboratory consumables composed of multiple connected microtubes-typically in 8-tube or 12-tube strips-with integrated hinged caps designed for secure sample containment and easy handling during PCR, qPCR, enzyme reactions, and sample storage. Manufactured from medical-grade polypropylene, these tubes provide excellent chemical resistance, uniform wall thickness for consistent heat transfer, and tight sealing to prevent evaporation or contamination. They are compatible with most thermal cyclers, centrifuges, and automated liquid handling systems, making them essential in biotechnology, molecular biology, and diagnostic laboratories.

Upstream supply depends on high-purity medical- and laboratory-grade polypropylene (PP) resins, which are selected for their chemical inertness, clarity, and resistance to repeated thermal cycling. These resins are often supplied in pelletized form and may include nucleating agents to improve transparency or mechanical properties. Production also relies on high-precision multi-cavity injection molding machines, typically equipped with hot runner systems to achieve uniform tube dimensions and reduce material waste. Precision-engineered steel molds are essential for ensuring consistent tube volumes and cap hinge integrity, while automated vision inspection systems detect molding defects at scale. In addition, upstream processes may use silicone or PTFE-based lubricants on cap seals to maintain tight closure performance and sterilization technologies such as gamma irradiation, ethylene oxide gas (EtO), or electron beam methods to meet sterility certifications required for clinical and research use. Packaging materials like medical-grade polyethylene bags, blister packs, or resealable cartons complete the upstream supply chain.

Downstream demand is driven by molecular diagnostics, PCR-based testing workflows, drug discovery pipelines, genomics and proteomics research, and clinical laboratories conducting high-throughput assays. Applications range from routine amplification and sequencing to precision medicine and infectious disease diagnostics. In pharmaceutical R&D, strip tubes are used in automated compound screening, enzyme kinetics studies, and stability testing, while in public health laboratories they support surveillance programs for pathogens such as influenza, COVID-19, or emerging viral strains. The increasing adoption of fully automated sample preparation and amplification platforms in clinical settings further fuels demand for dimensionally stable, automation-compatible tube formats that minimize cross-contamination risks. Distributors and lab suppliers often provide strip tubes pre-barcoded, sterile-packed, or bundled with compatible racks to streamline logistics in centralized laboratories.
