Nalgene™ Oak Ridge High-Speed Polycarbonate Centrifuge Tubes (Thermo Scientific™)

Perform a plethora of applications thanks to the excellent mechanical strength of Thermo Scientific™ Nalgene™ Oak Ridge High-Speed Polycarbonate Centrifuge Tubes. These transparent tubes provide easy viewing of contents.

Key Features

Features:
  • Withstand temperatures from -135° to +135°C (-211° to +275°F)
  • Round bottom to fit high speed rotors
  • Can be used in refrigerated or non-refrigerated centrifuges
  • Comes with polypropylene linerless closures—easy to clean and provides leakproof† protection under normal conditions up to 10,000 x g
  • When equipped with a Nalgene sealing cap (sold separately), 30mL and 50mL tubes can be spun up to 50,000 x g
  • Autoclavable; Repeated autoclaving will reduce the life of PC centrifuge tubes
  • For leakproof performance >10,000 x g, use a sealing cap or sealing cap assembly (sold separately).

Ordering Information:

Optional sealing cap assemblies available for 30ml and 50ml sizes. Use Cat. No. DS3132-0020 for 30mL tube and Cat. No. DS3132-0024 for 50mL tube.
