The Process Indicator Tape is designed to seal packs that are exposed to steam sterilization.
The tape distinguishes between items processed and unprocessed in both gravity discharge and pre-vacuum steam sterilization processes. Designed for use in gravity sterilizers operating at 121˚C for 30 minutes or pre-vacuum sterilizers operating at 132˚C for 4 minutes and 135˚C for 3 minutes. Easy-to-handle, adheres on contact and stays in place through live steam pressure. After use, the tape removes quickly and completely. Made of a saturated crepe paper printed with white indicator lines that turn black once exposed to the steam process. It is coated with a dry natural rubber based adhesive.
