Description
6-fold angle rotor (40°) type 5015 is a fixed-angle centrifuge rotor with six places for 50 ml and 15 ml centrifuge tubes of the Falcon® type. The 40° angle geometry is suited to efficient pelleting and phase separation when processing medium-volume samples in conical tubes. Capacity is specified as 6 × 50/15 ml centrifuge tubes, so laboratories can run mixed or uniform loads of common Falcon®-style formats in a single spin. The rotor is supplied as 1 pc and weighs 2,430 kg, reflecting a robust assembly for regular use on compatible test tube centrifuges. Produced by manufacturer Ohaus, type 5015 supports cell culture, clinical chemistry, biochemistry and general research workflows that rely on 15 ml and 50 ml conical tubes. Parallel processing of up to six samples helps increase throughput without changing tube standards already established in the lab. This rotor forms part of laboratory centrifuge accessories for test tube centrifuges and provides a dedicated six-place angle option for Falcon®-type 50/15 ml tubes.
This article belongs on Centrifuge tubes (conical), in Tubes & vials.

Questions about 6-fold angle rotor, (40°) type 5015, 6 x 50/15 ml centrifuge tubes, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
6-fold angle rotor, (40°) type 5015, 6 x 50/15 ml centrifuge tubes, 1 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Ohaus for laboratory use. It sits in Centrifuge tubes (conical), inside Tubes & vials, in Matériel de laboratoire.
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.
