Description
Test tubes in polystyrene (PS) with a conical profile are practical single-use vessels for routine sample handling, short-term storage and general laboratory workflows. Each tube has an outer diameter of 16 mm and a height of 105 mm, offering a familiar format that fits common racks, holders and benchtop setups. The conical shape assists collection of small liquid volumes at the base and supports straightforward decanting or transfer steps. Manufactured by Kartell, these tubes are supplied in a pack of 1000 pc(s) with a total weight of 5,800 kg, making the pack suitable for high-throughput teaching labs, quality-control benches and research groups that consume disposable plasticware regularly. Polystyrene construction keeps the tubes lightweight and convenient for everyday use where glass is not required. Consistent diameter and height simplify inventory planning and compatibility checks with existing tube racks. Ideal for aqueous samples, buffer aliquots and many non-aggressive media within the chemical resistance limits of PS, they help standardise consumable supply across multi-user laboratories without complicating daily procedures.
This article is part of Test tubes, in Tubes & vials.

Questions about Test tubes, PS, conical, Ø 16 mm, height 105 mm, 1000 unit(s)
What is this article?
Test tubes, PS, conical, Ø 16 mm, height 105 mm, 1000 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Kartell 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.
