Vascular Luer lock cap products are caps that are used to seal the Luer lock connector on a vascular access device, such as an IV catheter or a syringe. These caps are typically made of plastic and have a locking mechanism that securely attaches to the Luer lock connector, preventing any leakage of the fluid or medication being administered. They are used primarily in medical settings to ensure the safe and accurate delivery of fluids and medications to patients and to prevent contamination of a sterile IV site.
Molded Products manufactures a variety of accessories that work with the catheter which allows you to control your entire process from beginning to end. Our products are individually packaged, sterile, and capped to allow the products to maintain sterility after it is removed from the packaging. Additionally, they are non-pyrogenic with the cap in place.

When repetitive, but not continuous access to the bloodstream is required, an end cap allows for the intermittent discontinuance of the procedure and to easily begin again when needed.
