• Withstands temperatures from -135° to +135°C (-211° to +275°F)
• Round-bottom design allows Matched high-speed rotors
• Available in refrigerated or non-refrigerated centrifuges
• Comes with easy-to-clean polypropylene unlined caps for normal conditions at speeds up to 10,000 xg Provides leak-proof† protection
• When equipped with Nalgene sealing caps (sold separately), 30mL and 50mL tubes can be centrifuged at up to 50,000 xg
• Autoclavable; re-autoclavable Sterilization shortens the life of PC centrifuge tubes
• For superior leak protection at >10,000 xg, use a sealing cap or sealing cap assembly (sold separately).

Ordering information:

The 30ml and 50ml sizes have optional sealing cap assemblies. Use product number DS3132-0020 for 30 mL tubes and DS3132-0024 for 50 mL tubes.
