Description
- Made of thermo-conductive metal alloy
- Temperature uniformity through ChillBlock™ rack
- Autoclavable or clean with disinfectants
- Alphanumeric identification of wells facilitating tube location
- Anodized surface resistant to rust, corrosion and abrasion
S700-16 ChillBlock™ Microcentrifuge Tube Rack will hold 15 wells of 1.5 ml snap cap Microcentrifuge tubes.
S700-14 is a 30-well rack and will hold 0.5 ml tubes.
An alphanumeric grid allows for indexing rows and columns, therefore facilitating tube location. Each cavity will ensure a more efficient thermal exchange since it is in direct contact with the entire tube wall.
