Description
Changing block for 50 ml Falcon® type tubes is a laboratory exchange block designed for secure vessel seating during temperature-controlled mixing and incubation workflows. It accommodates Falcon® type 50 ml tubes at a half fill level of 51 mm, supporting consistent thermal contact and stable positioning in thermoshaker and thermocycler setups. Supplied as a single unit with a weight of 0,630 kg, the block is intended for routine sample handling where rapid block exchange and reliable tube retention are required. This accessory from manufacturer Hettich Benelux fits laboratory appliance configurations used for heating, cooling, and shaking of conical centrifuge tubes. The format is suited to molecular biology, biochemistry, and general life-science protocols that rely on 50 ml Falcon® type vessels. Clear geometry for the stated half fill level helps maintain reproducible sample orientation during processing. Use the block as a dedicated insert when switching between vessel formats on compatible thermoshaking or thermal cycling platforms in research and analytical laboratories.
This article is part of Centrifuge tubes (conical), in Tubes & vials.

Questions about Changing block for, 50ml, Falcon® type, half fill level 51mm, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
Changing block for, 50ml, Falcon® type, half fill level 51mm, 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.
