Description
DURAN® test tube with beaded rim is a thick-walled laboratory glass vessel intended for reaction controls, test series and preliminary tests with small substance quantities. Featuring a nominal volume of 8 ml and dimensions of 12 mm diameter by 100 mm length, it is produced from borosilicate glass 3.3. The beaded rim facilitates secure handling while the round bottom supports even heating of small amounts. A permanently fired white print remains durable over time. These tubes from manufacturer Duran/DWK Life Sciences excel in converting substances and liquids to other aggregate states to initiate further reactions. Available as a pack of 100 pieces, they serve daily laboratory needs including storage and transport of small liquid volumes. Mechanical resistance from the thick-wall construction makes them suitable for repeated use under typical lab conditions involving thermal processing and sample preparation workflows. Their design supports a wide variety of analytical procedures where limited sample volumes are examined or processed prior to larger-scale work.

Questions about DURAN® Test Tube, with beaded rim
What is this article?
DURAN® Test Tube, with beaded rim is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes DWK Life Sciences for laboratory use. It sits in Test tubes, inside Tubes & vials, in Labware.
A test tube is the open cylindrical vessel for a small liquid, in borosilicate glass or in plastic. Rimmed and rimless mouths differ. The size is diameter by length. It is not graduated for a result, and a glass tube that will be centrifuged has a force limit.
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.
