The Tecniplast EM500 Mouse Cage Seal (part of the patented Emerald sealing system) provides a soft, radial silicone gasket around the base rim to ensure a secure, airtight connection between the cage top and base. Sold in packs of 5, this design eliminates the need for manual latches, simplifying handling and minimizing operator fatigue. By creating a reliable, gravity- and suction-assisted seal, the gasket helps maintain containment and biocontainment integrity without compromising airflow or animal welfare. Built to last through repeated cage changes and sterilization, the seal is a critical component for long-term, safe operation in high-density IVC systems.

• Patented radial silicone gasket - ensures a tight, secure seal simply by placing the top on the base, no latches needed.
• Improved ergonomics - reduces repetitive strain by eliminating the need to manually fasten or release cage lids.
• Enhanced biosecurity - supports reliable containment for both animals and operators through a consistent sealing mechanism.
