Flexible Flocked Nasal Swab – 50 mm Breakpoint

This flexible flocked nasal swab is designed for validated nasal collection workflows that benefit from a tapered distal shaft and a 50 mm snap-off section. Its low-pile nylon flocking is bonded around a molded core rather than wound like a conventional cotton swab.

Product Highlights

• Flexible tapered distal shaft supports controlled positioning.
• Nominal 50 mm molded breakpoint provides an intermediate break-off length.
• Uniform nylon flocking forms a consistent collection surface.
• Tip, tube and pack format are confirmed against the selected SKU.

Structure and Materials

Typical Applications

• Nasal specimen-collection workflows subject to validated technique
• Transfer into a compatible transport medium or dry tube
• Clinical and laboratory collection kits

Important: The customer is responsible for validating the complete collection, transport and downstream test workflow.

Technical Specifications

Selection Guide

Ordering Information

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the tip ordinary cotton?

No. The collection head is nylon flocking bonded to a molded core; it is not a wound cotton bud.

What does the breakpoint measurement mean?

It is the nominal distance from the collection tip to the molded snap point. Confirm tolerance and tube fit for the selected SKU.

Can this swab be used for any specimen type?

No. The collection site, technique, tube and downstream method must be validated together.

Is a transport tube included?

Tube and pack options are configuration dependent. Puretest will confirm the quoted supply format.

How do I choose regular tip versus minitip?

Use the validated collection method and anatomical access requirement; a minitip has a smaller profile than a regular tip.

Is the product sterile?

Sterile configurations may be available, but the method and documentation must be confirmed for the exact SKU.

Can packaging be customized?

OEM labeling and pack formats can be discussed after the technical configuration is fixed.

What information should I send for a quotation?

Provide tip geometry, breakpoint, total length, tube requirement, sterility, pack quantity and expected order volume.
