Ideal for research and clinical staining workflows, the rack holds up to 18 slides of approximately 76 x 26 mm and is equipped with talc-treated non-slip feet plus two drain plugs. Staining liquid can be discarded via four corner pour spouts or a bottom drain, while practical grip recesses simplify handling at the bench. A black lid supports light-sensitive applications, and moisture channels address special staining requirements. Tray dimensions are 410 x 225 x 40 mm; the lid measures 398 x 214 x 11 mm. Supplied as one piece from manufacturer Marienfeld, the unit is suited to operating temperatures from 0 to 40 °C.
