Description
Nalgene™ Oak Ridge PPCO centrifuge tubes with sealing cap for high-speed applications are translucent round-bottom tubes built for elevated-speed laboratory centrifugation. Each tube offers a 30 mL nominal capacity, allowing comfortable working volumes while the translucent wall helps users identify contents quickly before and after spinning. Constructed from polypropylene copolymer (PPCO) with polypropylene (PP) sealing screw caps, they are specified for maximum forces up to 50.000 × g. The design omits graduations and a writing area, focusing on a clean sealing closure for high-speed use, and the tubes are autoclavable when laboratory procedures call for thermal reprocessing of plastic consumables. They are packed 10 per pack and supplied as a case of 50, supporting efficient restocking of centrifuge workstations. These Oak Ridge tubes from manufacturer Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics address high-speed applications that need durable PPCO performance together with straightforward visual checks of the sample. Typical use includes research, routine analytical separations, and quality-control centrifugation where a sealing screw-cap tube must tolerate high relative centrifugal force in day-to-day laboratory practice.
This article is part of Centrifuge tubes (conical), in Tubes & vials.

Questions about Nalgene™ Oak Ridge High-Speed PPCO Centrifuge Tubes with Sealing Cap
What is this article?
Nalgene™ Oak Ridge High-Speed PPCO Centrifuge Tubes with Sealing Cap is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics 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.
