Buying advice

When selecting lab cap plugs, consider the material compatibility with your chemicals (e.g., PTFE for aggressive solvents, polypropylene for general use), heat resistance requirements, and whether you need autoclavable caps. Glass stoppers offer precision but require grease; silicone provides flexibility but may not seal as tightly. Balance cost with durability for your specific application.
