T408 - 15ml Disposable Conical Centrifuge Tubes
made of polystyrene and polypropylene

Tubes and caps sold separately

Suitable for general centrifugation, urinalysis procedures and serum separation. They are chemically clean and metal free, ready to use and uniform in size and shape, measuring
17 x 120mm.

Graduations are at 0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 2.5, 5, 10, 12 and 15mL. Polystyrene tubes resist a centrifuge speed of 3400 RPM while polypropylene tubes resist speeds of up to 5000 RPM.

T401-10 polyethylene plug type caps ensure a leakproof seal, yet are easy to push in and remove with one hand. Available in 6 popular colors.

T410  - Urine Collection System

The Simport Urine Collection System contains 100 disposable 15mL heavy-wall polystyrene tubes, snap caps, self-adhesive identification labels, and 3 oz. plastic collection cups all packed in a plastic bag (5 bags per case).

Urine tubes are made of virgin polystyrene and are free of any mold release agents, metals or additives that could contaminate samples. They are made of heavy wall construction, graduated at 1/4, 1/2, 1, 2 and every 2ml thereafter up to 12mL, and can be safely centrifuged at speeds up to 3400 RPM. The tubes are flared at the top to make filling and drip-free pouring easier. Designed to allow the use of midget urinometers and reagent test strips requiring only 1/4 to 1/2mL of sample.

The use of Simport tight-fitting plastic caps makes these tubes suitable for transportation in pneumatic tube systems.

T420  -  50 ml Disposable Centrifuge Tubes

These centrifuge tubes are also useful for collecting and transporting biological specimens. Leakproof characteristics are ensured by a flat top plastic screw cap with an inner sealing lip. Tubes are made of translucent polypropylene or optically clear polystyrene with molded graduations from 2.5 to 50mL.

Polypropylene tubes can be autoclaved and will resist temperatures up to 121ºC; they will also resist acids, solvents and alkalies at room temperature. They withstand centrifugation speeds of 3000g or 5000 RPM.

Polystyrene tubes can tolerate aqueous solutions of mild bases or weak acids, but not organic solvents, aromatic or chlorinated hydrocarbons, and they cannot be autoclaved. They withstand centriguation speeds up to 1000g or 1500 RPM.

Tubes are available in bags or in break-away polyfoam racks for better protection during transport, storage and for convenient laboratory use. Racks can hold up to 25 tubes; tube contents are visible from top to bottom since racks are provided with viewing slots.
They are supplied sterile with green caps or non sterile with yellow caps.
 

Conical bottom tubes with self-standing base graduated from 10 to 50ml in 5ml increments.
