Autoclave's ZipperClave®, with standard sizes from 500 to 4,000 ml, is designed for applications requiring frequent and/or quick opening of the vessel. The closure is achieved using a resilient spring or "zipper" located in a groove machined into the body and cover, and an O-ring seal. To remove the cover, simply release the safety sleeve and pull the zipper handle. A safety lock engages the spring when it is fully inserted.
