Description
Adapter for 1 × 15 ml round-bottom or fixed-angle (RB/FA) tubes with 17 mm diameter provides secure seating of a single 15 ml tube during centrifugation. The pack contains two adapters, allowing balanced loading of paired rotor positions and stable tube retention under centrifugal load. Net weight is 0,085 kg and gross weight 0,222 kg; packaging dimensions are 0,21 m depth, 0,18 m width and 0,09 m height with a volume of 0,003 m³. This centrifuge accessory from manufacturer Ohaus is intended for laboratories that process 15 ml RB/FA tubes of 17 mm diameter in research, clinical or industrial settings. The compact geometry fits standard rotors and simplifies format changes. Country of origin is Germany. Without any display elements, the adapter serves purely as a mechanical interface that maintains correct tube orientation and contributes to reproducible separation results. It is well suited to workflows demanding reliable support of round-bottom or fixed-angle 15 ml vessels while preserving rotor balance throughout the run.
This article is part of Centrifuge tubes (conical), in Tubes & vials.

Questions about Adapter 1x15ml D17mm RB/FA 2/pk
What is this article?
Adapter 1x15ml D17mm RB/FA 2/pk is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Ohaus for laboratory use. It sits in Centrifuge tubes (conical), inside Tubes & vials, in Labware.
A centrifuge tube is conical so a pellet collects at the tip, and it is rated for a relative centrifugal force. A 15 mL tube and a 50 mL tube are different rotors. Polypropylene is the ordinary plastic. The cap has to survive the same force as the tube.
A tube holds a small sample upright. A test tube is the open glass or plastic cylinder. A centrifuge tube is conical so a pellet forms at the tip, and it is rated for a centrifugal force the rotor will actually reach. A vial is a small closed bottle, often for a sample that will sit in an instrument. NMR tubes are a special case: the glass has to be uniform or the spectrum is the tube, not the sample. Laboratory ware is listed under ISO laboratory glassware.
