Q: Why should I get an Oetiker Clamp compared to a cable tie?
A: Oetiker products ensure a 360° sealing, leak-free connection. In connections for critical applications, an Oetiker clamp is imperative. A cable tie can be used to hold a connection, but not to seal it.
Q: What sterilization methods are compatible with Oetiker clamps?
A: Our clamps are compatible with all common sterilization methods including Gamma, X-Ray, and autoclave.
Q: What is the difference between degreasing and PureLine’s high purity cleaning process?
A: While our degreasing process may reduce the particulates on the clamps, we do not control this aspect of the process as it is not a cleaning process. However PureLine’s high purity cleaning process is designed to remove visible particulates in line with the rigorous cleanliness standards across the BioPharma industry.
