One of the tasks that is typically done on a routine basis in most blood banks or diagnostic clinics is gathering blood (and other body fluids) for testing. This task will require care because the smallest handling mistake would be enough to contaminate a specimen.
To ensure the risk of contamination is reduced, a blood tube stripper is used. Blood tubes strippers are used to strip blood bag tubes. One of its main functions is to ensure the anticoagulation of the blood in the blood bag tubing. This is done before preparing it for segmentation.

- Be used for both left and right hand use
- Be used for various types of blood bag systems
- Allow quicker and complete stripping of blood bag tubes
