ABSTRACT:
A cap for a storage jar or the like for hospital use in storing syringe needles preparatory to disposal, in the construction of which alternating discs of steam permeable construction material and non-needle puncturable construction material, the latter with steam passageway openings, are embodied in the cap so that the syringe needles can be steam autoclaved through the cap, moving through the steam permeable discs and the steam passageway openings of the other discs, so as to sterilize the stored syringe needles, and the steam passageway openings are held out of register or alignment with each other so as to prevent projection of any stored syringe needle out of the jar and coming into contact with a hospital employee or other individual.
