LabJar™ is a soft yet firm, ergonomic, cushioned pad that offers extra gripping power to help your gloved or ungloved hands open bottles, tubes, and jars (wet, cold, or hot). It provides an easy way to open containers such as autoclaved cell media bottles, stoppered flasks, sealed reagents, bacteria growth media bottles, and other tightly closed or hard-to-open containers. It affords handling protection against hot labware or can be used to protect sensitive surfaces such as benchtops from hot containers. LabJar is also a great convenience/help for unsealing instruments such as centrifuge rotor lids.
