Description
DURAN® centrifuge tube with conical bottom 60° is a laboratory glassware item designed for efficient separation of substance mixtures by centrifugation. Made from borosilicate glass 3.3, the tube combines high mechanical strength with a pointed 60° base that collects even small solid fractions and makes minimal residues easy to recognise visually. Nominal volume is 50 ml (0,05 l), with an outer diameter of 34 mm and height of 100 mm, ensuring compatibility with standard centrifuge rotors and adapters. In use, the filled tube is accelerated so that denser particles migrate outward faster than lighter ones, producing clean phase separation based on mass and density differences. Typical applications include centrifugation, density-driven particle fractionation and solid–liquid separations that exploit centrifugal force. This durable single-piece tube from manufacturer Duran/DWK Life Sciences supports reliable sample processing in analytical, preparative and routine laboratory workflows where robust glassware and clear visualisation of sediments are required.
This article is part of Centrifuge tubes (conical), in Tubes & vials.

Questions about DURAN® Centrifuge Tube with conical bottom 60°
What is this article?
DURAN® Centrifuge Tube with conical bottom 60° is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes DWK Life Sciences for laboratory use. It sits in Centrifuge tubes (conical), inside Tubes & vials, in Labware.
A centrifuge tube is conical so a pellet collects at the tip, and it is rated for a relative centrifugal force. A 15 mL tube and a 50 mL tube are different rotors. Polypropylene is the ordinary plastic. The cap has to survive the same force as the tube.
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.
