Rapid-core sampling punch with plunger system

Rapid-Core sampling punches with plunger systems are high quality coring tools designed to cut, core, punch and retrieve smaller samples of thin and soft materials such as paper, plastics, films, gels, tissue, fabrics, cloth, tapes, leaves, paint and coatings. It is the ideal tool to cut smaller samples from larger sheets or films of softer materials for subsequent microscopy investigations and SEM/EDS analysis. Rapid-Core punches are especially recommended as a DNA sampling tools for forensic investigations and for laboratory sampling applications. There are 15 different coring diameters available with cutting diameters ranging from 0.35 to 8.0mm and a coring depth of 5mm. The cutting tip is retractable for protection and safety - the plunger system mechanism ensures clean and secure removal and/or transfer of coring samples.

Rapid-Core sampling punches with plunger system include:

  • Robust polypropylene ribbed handle for secure grip
  • Ultra-sharp seamless stainless steel 304 cutting tip
  • Retractable coring tip
  • Plunger system for easy removal of samples
  • Ready-to-use sterilised disposable punch
  • Colour coded by size

The Rapid-Core punches with plunger system are intended as disposable coring tools. However, when cross-contamination between samples is not an issue, these robust coring tools are reusable after cleaning.
Cleaning tip: Clean the cutting tip after each sampling by coring clean filter paper, rinse with ethanol or remove dried artifacts with compressed air.


Specifications of the Rapid-Core sampling punches with plunger system:

Materials: Body and plunger from polypropylene with 304 stainless steel cutting tip

Length: 114cm
Coring depth: maximum 3mm
Packaging: each, ethylen oxide (EO) sterilised
