Description
Adapter for 1 × 5 ml tubes, D13 mm RB/Vac/Sar provides secure holding of a single 5 ml round-bottom, Vacutainer or Sarstedt tube inside a centrifuge rotor. Sized for a 13,5 mm tube diameter, the accessory is delivered as a pack of two units so that rotors can be balanced or a spare adapter kept on hand. With a net weight of 0,027 kg and a packed gross weight of 0,165 kg, the set remains lightweight yet robust for daily laboratory handling. Packaging dimensions of 0,21 m depth, 0,18 m width and 0,09 m height yield a volume of only 0,003 m³, simplifying storage and logistics. The adapter is intended for clinical, research and routine sample-preparation applications that employ 5 ml tubes and require reliable mechanical support during centrifugation. Offered by manufacturer Ohaus, it is classified as a centrifuge accessory and manufactured in Germany. Free of display devices or electronic parts, the design concentrates on precise tube seating and long-term mechanical durability under normal laboratory centrifuge conditions.
This article is part of Rotor adapters & accessories, in Centrifuges.

Questions about Adapter 1x5ml D13mm RB/Vac/Sar 2/pk
What is this article?
Adapter 1x5ml D13mm RB/Vac/Sar 2/pk is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Ohaus for laboratory use. It sits in Rotor adapters & accessories, inside Centrifuges, in Lab instruments.
An adapter lets a rotor spun for large tubes accept smaller ones. The adapter has to be the one for that rotor, and the tubes have to be supported at the shoulder the adapter was designed for. A stack of the wrong inserts is an unbalanced load.
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.
