Description
Changing block for 38 centrifuge tubes is an exchange insert designed to hold thirty-eight conical centrifuge tubes of 0,5 ml volume. It is intended for use with thermoshakers and thermocyclers when laboratories need a stable multi-position nest for mid-small reaction vessels during heating, cooling or shaking steps. The block matches conical 0,5 ml tube geometry commonly used in molecular biology sample preparation and related workflows. Delivered as 1 pc with a weight of 0,510 kg, the accessory can be kept as a dedicated format change-over piece beside the main instrument. This changing block from manufacturer Hettich Benelux allows operators to switch tube layouts without modifying the appliance itself. Thirty-eight positions support parallel processing of 0,5 ml conical tubes in routine laboratory sequences. The unit belongs to the laboratory-appliances category focused on thermoshakers and thermocyclers, where interchangeable blocks keep instrument platforms flexible across different vessel sizes. Clear capacity and conical tube specification help users select the correct block for their 0,5 ml workflows and maintain consistent sample handling at the bench.
This article is part of Centrifuge tubes (conical), in Tubes & vials.

Questions about Changing block for 38 centrifuge tubes, 0.5 ml, conical, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
Changing block for 38 centrifuge tubes, 0.5 ml, conical, 1 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Hettich Benelux 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.
