Description
Rotor FA-45-24-11-Special is an aerosol-tight fixed-angle rotor for Centrifuge 5424 and 5424 R, configured for up to 24 × 1,5/2,0 ml vessels. It reaches a maximum relative centrifugal force of 21.130 × g at 15,000 rpm, supporting demanding microcentrifuge workflows with standard microtubes. A PTFE coating improves chemical resistance when samples or reagents challenge untreated rotor surfaces, while the aerosol-tight design aids safer handling of hazardous or sensitive materials during spins. This rotor from manufacturer Eppendorf is supplied as a coated unit with AT lid for the stated centrifuge series and is intended as a dedicated accessory rather than a universal fit. Laboratories use such rotors for nucleic acid work, protein preparations, and routine sample pelleting where sealed, chemically more robust hardware is preferred. Pack size is one piece, with a net weight of 0,990 kg. Clear capacity and speed limits help match the rotor to validated protocols on compatible 5424-series instruments without exceeding mechanical ratings.
This article is part of Rotors, in Centrifuges.

Questions about ROTOR 24x2ML COATED WITH A-T LID (5424)
What is this article?
ROTOR 24x2ML COATED WITH A-T LID (5424) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Eppendorf for laboratory use. It sits in Rotors, inside Centrifuges, in Lab instruments.
A centrifuge rotor is the rotating part that holds the tubes, and it is rated for a maximum speed and a maximum load. A swing-out rotor and a fixed-angle rotor pellet differently. A rotor from another centrifuge does not belong on this drive, even when it seems to fit.
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.
