Class 6 Autoclave Indicator Strips

Class 6 Autoclave Indicator Strips are precision-calibrated TST (Time, Steam, Temperature) chemical indicators designed for the reliable monitoring of non-vacuum autoclave cycles. Each strip provides clear, visual confirmation that the correct sterilisation parameters have been achieved, ensuring compliance with infection control and sterilisation standards across healthcare and laboratory environments.

Key Features & Benefits

• Class 6 multi-parameter indicators – monitor time, steam, and temperature simultaneously.
• Calibrated for non-vacuum autoclaves: 4 mins at 134°C / 20 mins at 121°C.
• Distinct, irreversible colour change confirms correct cycle conditions.
• Simple visual interpretation supports daily validation checks.
• Compact and easy to use for internal or external load testing.
• Supplied in a pack of 200 for economical, consistent use.
• Supports infection control protocols in accordance with best-practice sterilisation standards.

Product Description

These single-use indicators are calibrated to 4 minutes at 134°C and 20 minutes at 121°C, making them suitable for verifying both standard and lower-temperature cycles. By simultaneously monitoring time, steam penetration, and temperature, they provide an accurate measure of autoclave performance, helping identify potential cycle failures before instruments are used clinically.

Once exposed to the correct sterilisation conditions, the indicator strip changes colour distinctly and permanently. This immediate, irreversible change allows for quick interpretation and simple record-keeping as part of daily autoclave validation procedures. The compact format means strips can be placed inside pouches, trays, or wrapped instrument packs to assess internal sterilisation efficacy.

Supplied in a pack of 200, these Class 6 TST Indicator Strips represent a cost-effective and reliable solution for routine autoclave monitoring in both clinical and laboratory settings. They are ideal for practices that prioritise infection control assurance, traceability, and consistent sterilisation outcomes.
