Stackable Floating Microplate Rack for Microtubes — Polypropylene

Polypropylene floating rack designed to hold microtubes upright in water baths. Each tube is secured in vertical position — the bath heats or cools the sample uniformly with no risk of the tube sinking or tipping over.

Specifications

• Material: Polypropylene
• Function: Holds microtubes in vertical position at water bath surface
• Identification: Alphanumeric per position — unambiguous sample location
• Stackable: Yes — racks store in column when not in use

Typical Applications

Thermostatted water baths for incubations, protein denaturation, PCR setup prior to thermocycling, and any protocol requiring controlled temperature in microtubes. Also suitable for ice bath cooling — tubes remain accessible and organised throughout.

Routinely used in molecular biology, biochemistry and genomics laboratories.

Practical Advantages

Alphanumeric labelling at each position prevents mix-ups when multiple operators are working from the same rack. Stackable format takes up minimal drawer space. Polypropylene resists the majority of common laboratory reagents and withstands both ice bath and hot water bath temperatures.
