Description
Adapter 1 is a laboratory shaker accessory configured to hold a maximum of 20 test tubes with diameters from 10 to 18 mm. This dedicated adapter provides organised, multi-tube capacity on compatible shaking platforms, enabling parallel processing of samples in research, quality-control and routine laboratory settings. It is particularly useful in biochemistry, microbiology and analytical workflows where several tubes of similar diameter must be agitated simultaneously under controlled conditions. Supplied as a single piece with a net weight of 0,440 kg, the adapter offers a stable interface between the shaker and the tube array. Packaging remains compact for convenient storage and rapid change-over between different vessel formats. The accessory forms part of the shaking-device accessories range from manufacturer Heidolph and is specified clearly for tubes in the 10–18 mm diameter band. Laboratories that regularly process batches of up to 20 tubes within this size range can integrate Adapter 1 to streamline setup, improve positional consistency and support efficient multi-sample shaking protocols without improvised holders.

Questions about Adaptor 1
What is this article?
Adaptor 1 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Heidolph for laboratory use. It sits in Stirring & mixing accessories, inside Stirring, shaking & mixing, in Lab instruments.
Stirring accessories are the bosses, the retort clamps and the spare knobs that hold an overhead stirrer over the vessel. The stand has to carry the motor's mass, not only the flask's.
Stirring keeps a mixture uniform or helps a solid dissolve. A magnetic stirrer spins a bar inside a closed vessel. An overhead stirrer drives a shaft when the liquid is viscous or the volume is large. A vortex mixer agitates a tube. A shaker moves a whole rack or a plate. The shape of the impeller and the speed decide whether the liquid turns over or merely spins. The vessels being stirred are indexed under ISO laboratory glassware.
