A nest and tub arrangement for the storage of medical device components including a tub and at least one nest. The tub includes four side surfaces and a plurality of guide ribs extending vertically along the side surfaces, wherein the plurality of guide ribs are inwardly directed and include a friction surface extending vertically thereon. The at least one nest includes a top surface, a bottom surface, a plurality of receptacles for the storage of a plurality of medical device components therein, and a plurality of deflectable clips positioned on side surfaces of the at least one nest. A position of each of the plurality of deflectable clips of the at least one nest corresponds to a position of a respective one of the plurality of guide ribs of the tub, and a portion of each of the plurality of deflectable clips is configured to contact a corresponding friction surface of a respective one of the plurality of guide ribs so as to laterally deflect each of the plurality of deflectable clips inward to align and secure the at least one nest within the tub.

Nest for the packaging of plunger stoppers with clips ensuring a reliable alignment of several nests in a tub

A nest for the storage of medical device components, including a top surface, a bottom surface, and a plurality of receptacles for the storage of a plurality of medical device components therein. Each of the plurality of receptacles may include a sidewall portion extending downward from the bottom surface of the nest. Additionally, a plurality of ring-shaped protrusions may be provided to extend upward from the top surface of the nest and surround at least some of the plurality of receptacles. The plurality of ring-shaped protrusions may be sized and configured to receive a bottom portion of a corresponding one of the plurality of receptacles when a plurality of nests are vertically stacked relative to one another.
