Description
Adapter 0,5 ml and Microtainer® for 2 ml rotors accommodates either one 0,5 mL sample vessel with a maximum outer diameter of 8 mm or one Microtainer® of 0,6 mL with the same maximum diameter. It is compatible with all 1,5/2,0 mL rotors, so smaller primary tubes and Microtainer® formats can be spun in standard microcentrifuge positions without a dedicated rotor change. The pack contains six adapters, supporting multi-sample runs and convenient spare capacity at the bench. This accessory from manufacturer Eppendorf is aimed at clinical, diagnostic, and research laboratories that process mixed tube sizes in shared centrifuge rotors. Net weight is 0,012 kg and gross weight 0,013 kg, with a packaging volume of 0,001 m³. The design provides a stable seat for the specified vessel types during centrifugation, helping maintain correct tube orientation in 1,5/2,0 mL rotor bores when working with 0,5 mL sample tubes or 0,6 mL Microtainer® containers.

Questions about ADAP 0.5ML&Microtainer® F/2ML ROTORS PK/6
What is this article?
ADAP 0.5ML&Microtainer® F/2ML ROTORS PK/6 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Eppendorf for laboratory use. It sits in Rotors, inside Centrifuges, in Lab instruments.
A centrifuge rotor is the rotating part that holds the tubes, and it is rated for a maximum speed and a maximum load. A swing-out rotor and a fixed-angle rotor pellet differently. A rotor from another centrifuge does not belong on this drive, even when it seems to fit.
A centrifuge separates by density. The rotor spins the sample and the force is reported as a multiple of gravity, not as a raw speed, because the same revolutions per minute are a different force at a different radius. A microcentrifuge takes small tubes. A benchtop or floor model takes larger rotors. The tube, the adapter and the rotor have to be the combination the manufacturer rated. An unbalanced load is how centrifuges fail. Measurement of the related quantities sits with the BIPM.
