Description
Accessory for universal attachment VG 3.3 is a test tube insert made to accommodate 8 tubes of 16 mm diameter on compatible vortexers and small laboratory shakers. The eight-position layout gives each tube a stable seat so mixing proceeds evenly without crowding, which is useful for mid-volume samples and culture or assay tubes of this size. Intended for the VG 3.3 universal attachment, the insert supports everyday laboratory operations such as resuspending pellets, blending reagents, and preparing samples prior to analysis. It is supplied as a single unit weighing 0,045 kg, making it a practical spare or change-over part when workflows switch tube formats. Clear definition of capacity and diameter simplifies matching the insert to available glassware and plasticware. From manufacturer IKA, the accessory aligns with the VG 3.3 attachment family used in many bench-top mixing setups. Laboratories can standardise on this insert for 16 mm tubes while retaining flexibility to exchange other inserts for different diameters as needed.
This article is part of Shakers, rockers & rotators, in Stirring, shaking & mixing.

Questions about Accessory f. universal attachment VG 3.3, test tube insert for 8 tubes Ø 16 mm
What is this article?
Accessory f. universal attachment VG 3.3, test tube insert for 8 tubes Ø 16 mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes IKA for laboratory use. It sits in Shakers, rockers & rotators, inside Stirring, shaking & mixing, in Lab instruments.
A shaker, rocker or rotator moves a rack, a plate or a bottle so the contents keep moving without a stirrer bar. Orbital, reciprocating and rocking motions are different. The platform, the load and the speed range are the specification.
Stirring keeps a mixture uniform or helps a solid dissolve. A magnetic stirrer spins a bar inside a closed vessel. An overhead stirrer drives a shaft when the liquid is viscous or the volume is large. A vortex mixer agitates a tube. A shaker moves a whole rack or a plate. The shape of the impeller and the speed decide whether the liquid turns over or merely spins. The vessels being stirred are indexed under ISO laboratory glassware.
