Description
Piston holder (c) is a replacement accessory for Eppendorf Research® plus and Xplorer® (plus) pipettes, designed to accommodate pistons in the volume range from 2,5 µL to 1000 µL. This component belongs to the accessories and spare-parts category for laboratory liquid-handling instruments and supports secure seating of the corresponding piston assemblies across multiple volume classes. Supplied as a single piece, the holder enables targeted service of air-displacement pipettes without exchanging the full instrument. The part is produced by manufacturer Eppendorf and originates from Germany, with a net weight of 0,002 kg and a gross weight of 0,003 kg. Its packaging volume of 0,001 m³ keeps the footprint small for laboratory stockrooms and service kits. Compatibility spans low-volume 2,5 µL work through to 1000 µL applications within the Research® plus and Xplorer® (plus) portfolios, helping maintain correct mechanical alignment of the piston. The piston holder (c) is intended for routine maintenance of pipettes used in research, quality-control and analytical laboratories that rely on these Eppendorf systems for precise liquid handling.
This article is part of Pipette stands, calibration & accessories, in Liquid handling.

Questions about Piston mount
What is this article?
Piston mount is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Eppendorf for laboratory use. It sits in Pipette stands, calibration & accessories, inside Liquid handling, in Lab instruments.
A pipette stand holds piston pipettes upright so liquid does not run into the piston. Calibration accessories and certificates are how a pipette's delivered volume is shown to be inside tolerance. A stand is also a carousel. The certificate belongs to one pipette, identified by serial number.
A piston pipette delivers a set volume of liquid by air displacement or, for viscous and volatile liquids, by positive displacement. A single channel is the ordinary tool. A multichannel repeats the same volume across a row of a plate. A bottle-top dispenser meters reagent from the bottle it sits on. The accuracy is a property of the pipette and of how it is used, which is why calibration and a certificate exist. Piston-operated apparatus is treated under ISO laboratory apparatus. The volume unit sits with the BIPM and NIST.
