A simple and effective device for safely opening glass ampoules.

The plastic case completely encloses the glass ampoule (with the dot on the amp facing out), holding it in place so that it can be broken with a simple 'snap'.

The snapper can then be easily opened and the ampoule can be removed, or it can be locked in the open position (by means of a clip on the back) and contents of the ampoule can be drawn up in situ.

When using ampoules that have been scored to make opening easier, you must place the ampoule in the snapper correctly, otherwise the amp may shatter inside the device.

ALWAYS HAVE THE BLUE DOT FACING OUT.

10ml ampoules
The Safe Snap will also break 10ml ampoules: simply place the top of the ampoule in the 'body' part of the snapper, hold the bottom half of the ampoule in your hand, and break.

Plastic is more brittle when cold, and if your snapper gets cold, it may cause the hinges to snap.

So, if you are working outside during the winter it makes sense to keep your safe snap in a pocket where it can be kept warm, it's then less likely to break.

The Safe Snap Amp Snapper is precision engineered for durability and ease of use. The hinges should last at least 100 uses.

Customer Reviews

Overall rating: 4.6 / 5 from 16 reviews.

Does exactly what it’s described as doing. Pop in the vial, dot facing out, close the snapper and snap. Easy peasy.

Safe Snap Amp Snapper

| found that half of the dose was left in the snapped off part a couple of times and also removing the ampoule was not so easy and I dropped it so had to start a new one. I may get used to using this but perhaps by hand is safer.

Safe Snap Amp Snapper

Safe, simple, cheap but very effective. Highly recommended.

Safe Snap Amp Snapper

I love this little device it is easy to use and safe as glass ampoule is kept away from fingers so no glass injuries. Ampoule fits inside perfectly, fingers are kept safely away from glass and it snaps ampoule at the neck without breaking. I have weak hands and I kept breaking the top of the ampoules in my fingers but now with this device I have no problems and I feel safe using it.

Safe Snap Amp Snapper

Item received in good time, as described and a competitive price.

Safe Snap Amp Snapper

Hands are protected from ampoules breaking in hand. It is easy to use and it breaks the ampoule at the neck as long as you face the dot on ampoule facing outwards.
