Description
Adapter 500 mL wide-mouth bottles/RB (2x) is a centrifuge accessory made to hold one 500 mL Nalgene® wide-mouth bottle in the round buckets of the S-4x1000 rotor. Supplied as two pieces, the set enables stable positioning of wide-mouth bottles during swing-bucket centrifugation for media preparation, harvest steps and bulk liquid processing. It is designed for the S-4x1000 round-bucket layout from manufacturer Eppendorf, allowing laboratories to run Nalgene® 500 mL formats alongside other vessel types on the same rotor platform. Gross weight is 0,780 kg and packaging volume 0,005 m³, keeping the pair convenient for bench storage and rotor changeovers. Using a purpose-built adapter helps maintain correct seating and balance when wide-mouth bottles are preferred over conical vessels or smaller tubes. Produced in Germany, these adapters form part of the centrifuge accessory range for high-capacity swing-out rotors and support consistent large-volume workflows in research, biotech and industrial laboratory settings that rely on Nalgene® bottles with the S-4x1000 system.
This article is part of Rotor adapters & accessories, in Centrifuges.

Questions about Adapter 500 mL wide-neck bottles/RB (2x)
What is this article?
Adapter 500 mL wide-neck bottles/RB (2x) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Eppendorf for laboratory use. It sits in Rotor adapters & accessories, inside Centrifuges, in Lab instruments.
An adapter lets a rotor spun for large tubes accept smaller ones. The adapter has to be the one for that rotor, and the tubes have to be supported at the shoulder the adapter was designed for. A stack of the wrong inserts is an unbalanced load.
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.
