Description
Test tubes of borosilicate glass 3.3 featuring heavy-wall construction and a plain rim deliver reliable performance for laboratory sample handling and reagent applications. With approximate dimensions of 160 mm length and 16 mm diameter, these tubes provide a robust format suited to analytical procedures, moderate heating and clear visual monitoring of contents. Borosilicate glass 3.3 ensures the chemical resistance and thermal stability required in standard laboratory settings. Supplied in packs of 100 pc(s), they support streamlined inventory for research, quality-control and educational laboratories. Made by Hecht, the heavy-wall tubes with smooth plain rim minimise chipping and allow convenient handling, covering or rack storage. The sturdy design is well matched to repeated use as reagent tubes or sample tubes while preserving optical clarity. The 160 mm by 16 mm size integrates readily with common lab equipment and workflows that demand durable glassware for general chemical and biological work.

What is this article?
Test tubes, borosilicate glass 3.3, heavy wall rimless mm Ø ca. 160 x16 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Hecht 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.
