Cryo-Clear Clear Laser Cryogenic Labels 1700 Labels
Cryo-Clear Clear Laser Cryogenic Labels – For 1.5 mL to 2.0 mL Microcentrifuge Tubes and Cryovials, 1.18 in. x 0.79 in., Clear Polyurethane, Autoclave and Liquid Nitrogen Safe (MPN: CLEAR-170)
The Cryo-Clear CLEAR-170 is a high-performance, chemically inert cryogenic label sheet system precision-engineered for the long-term identification and archiving of sample tubes down to ultra-low storage temperatures. Designed explicitly for laser printers, these 1.18 inch x 0.79 inch (30 mm x 20 mm) rectangular labels are perfectly dimensioned to fit the side walls of standard 1.5 mL to 2.0 mL microcentrifuge tubes, conical vials, and cryogenic storage tubes. Fabricated from an ultra-thin, transparent polyurethane film, they provide complete visual clarity of the underlying tube contents without obscuring liquid levels or color gradients. Outfitted with a specialized cryogenic acrylic adhesive, these labels establish a permanent mechanical bond that resists peeling, bubbling, and degradation when subjected to liquid nitrogen, deep-freezer environments, and high-temperature autoclave cycles.
Technical Performance and Design
Optically Clear Polyurethane Film: Formulated from an ultra-thin, highly flexible clear polyurethane matrix. This transparent layout ensures that critical visual inspections of sample color, precipitate formation, or fluid volumes remain fully unobstructed after labeling.
Advanced Cryogenic Acrylic Adhesive: Equipped with a high-cohesion acrylic adhesive that bonds instantly to polypropylene surfaces. It is engineered to maintain its structural grip through extreme thermal expansion and contraction cycles, preventing labels from flagging or falling off during rapid thawing or freezing loops.
Extreme Temperature Endurance Horizon: Built to survive harsh laboratory environments ranging from liquid nitrogen vapor-phase storage (-196 C) and ultra-low mechanical freezers (-80 C) up to high-pressure steam autoclave sterilization cycles (+121 C).
Smudge-Resistant Laser Printer Matrix: The top-coated surface chemistry is explicitly calibrated for desktop laser printers. It ensures maximum toner fusion and adhesion, preventing text, linear barcodes, or 2D matrix codes from smudging, blurring, or bleeding when exposed to laboratory solvents and alcohols.

Key Benefits and Applications
Biobanking and Sample Repository Archiving: The premier labeling standard for organizing, barcoding, and logging large genomic or proteomic specimen libraries stored inside liquid nitrogen tanks and ultra-low vaults.
Centrifuge and Rotor Clearance: The ultra-thin film profile hugs the curves of the polypropylene tube wall tightly, ensuring labeled tubes slide cleanly in and out of tight microcentrifuge rotors and storage boxes without catching or binding.
Streamlined Laboratory Barcoding: Supports high-contrast printing of high-density data matrices, supporting error-free inventory tracking and mechanical scanning processing chains.
Application Best Practice Protocol: For optimal performance, labels should always be applied to clean, completely dry tubes at room temperature before freezing or submerging into cold baths.
