Description
Rotor FA-24x2-PTFE is an aerosol-tight fixed-angle rotor for 24 × 1,5/2,0 mL vessels, supplied complete with rotor lid and finished with a PTFE coating for higher chemical resistance. It is intended for Centrifuge 5425 and Centrifuge 5425 R and reaches a maximum speed of 21.300 × g (15,060 rpm). Aerosol-tight sealing is provided by the Eppendorf QuickLock® lid, supporting secure handling of samples where containment matters. Maximum capacity is 24 × 1,5/2,0 mL tubes, making the rotor suitable for routine high-speed microcentrifugation and sample preparation workflows that benefit from improved chemical durability of the rotor surface. This rotor from manufacturer Eppendorf is delivered as one piece and is specified for the Centrifuge 5425/5425 R platform. Net weight is 1,112 kg and gross weight is 1,235 kg, with a packaging volume of 0,006 m³. The PTFE-coated design combines high g-force performance with practical resistance for laboratory use involving more demanding reagents.
This article belongs on Rotors, in Centrifuges.

Questions about Rotor FA-24x2-PTFE for Cent 5425/R
What is this article?
Rotor FA-24x2-PTFE for Cent 5425/R 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.
