A needle cap clamp (10) is a resilient, flexible frame with a right arm (12) and a left arm (14) connected at a base (16). The distal end of each arm is characterized by a curved jaw (20, 22). These jaws are configured to grasp the cap (4) surrounding the needle of a syringe (2). The arms (12, 14) are closed towards each other during grasping. To maintain a closed position, mutually engaging engagement members (28, 30) extend inward from both arms (12, 14). To disengage the jaws (20, 22) from the cap (4), pressure is applied to pressure tab (32) in a direction normal to the primary plane defined by the frame. To ensure alignment of the engagement members (28, 30), a guide peg (40) also extends inward from arm 12 and penetrates a guide peg hole (42) in opposing arm (14). A fixed diameter grasping head (18) penetrates the base (16).
