Description
TR 4 test tube insert is a laboratory attachment designed to hold six 50 ml tubes with an outer diameter of 28 mm. It accepts Falcon/Greiner and equivalent centrifuge tubes and functions as a dedicated mount for the Trayster basic and Trayster digital overhead shakers from manufacturer IKA. The unit is supplied as one piece, with a net weight of 0,121 kg and a gross weight of 0,225 kg; packaging measures 0,090 m in height, 0,215 m in width and 0,120 m in depth. The six-position arrangement secures larger conical tubes during mixing, inversion or gentle agitation on Trayster platforms, enabling efficient parallel handling of 50 ml samples. Typical applications include sample preparation in molecular biology, cell culture and general analytical laboratories where standardised 50 ml centrifuge tubes are used. The Ø 28 mm openings align with common large-volume tube formats, so the insert integrates directly without additional adapters. The accessory is non-sterile and suited to normal laboratory ambient use. Country of origin is India. The TR 4 thus offers a practical, purpose-built carrier for 50 ml tubes on IKA Trayster systems.
This article is part of Centrifuge tubes (conical), in Tubes & vials.

Questions about TR 4, Tube insert, 6 x 50 ml, Ø28 mm
What is this article?
TR 4, Tube insert, 6 x 50 ml, Ø28 mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes IKA 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.
