Sarstedt Centrifuge Tube Plain 5 mL Screw Cap Polypropylene Tube, 100 per Bag

Sarstedt Centrifuge Tube Plain 5 mL Screw Cap Polypropylene Tube, 100 per Bag

This centrifuge tube is a 5 mL polypropylene screw cap tube for lab workflows that need reliable small-volume handling. A false bottom makes it especially suitable for small volumes and direct adaptation to analyzers, while the screw cap supports secure closure during processing. This nonsterile tube measures 15.3 x 92 mm and has an RCF rating of 3,000xG.

Good Fit For

• Small-volume laboratory sample handling
• Analyzer workflows that use direct tube adaptation
• Centrifuge applications up to 3,000xG
• Facilities that need nonsterile polypropylene tubes in bag quantity

Key Features

• 5 mL tube size supports small-volume centrifuge and analyzer workflows
• Polypropylene construction is autoclavable to 121 degrees C
• False bottom design is especially suitable for small volumes and direct adaptation to analyzers
• Screw cap closure helps keep samples securely closed during handling
• RCF rating of 3,000xG supports centrifuge use within that limit
• Nonsterile translucent tube without color coding for straightforward visual identification

Applications and Usage

• Processing small sample volumes in centrifuge workflows
• Using false-bottom tubes for direct adaptation to analyzers
• Autoclaving tubes up to 121 degrees C as part of lab preparation
• Routine laboratory handling where a screw cap tube is preferred

Packaging and Handling
