Nalgene™ Oak Ridge High-Speed PPCO Centrifuge Tubes, Sealing Cap

Nalgene™ Oak Ridge High-Speed PPCO Centrifuge Tubes with Sealing Cap

Elevate your laboratory efficiency and safety with Nalgene™ Oak Ridge High-Speed PPCO Centrifuge Tubes. Designed for rigorous application, these tubes offer unparalleled performance and reliability under extreme conditions.

Key Features:

• Exceptional Chemical Resistance: Built with polypropylene copolymer (PPCO) that outperforms polycarbonate in terms of chemical resilience, ensuring durability in a variety of laboratory conditions.
• Optimal Autoclavability: These tubes can withstand repeated autoclaving cycles, significantly extending their lifespan compared to traditional polycarbonate options.
• High-Speed Performance: Capable of enduring forces up to 50,000 x g in both refrigerated and non-refrigerated centrifuges; for the model 3139-0050, the capacity goes up to an impressive 100,605 x g when utilizing the T29-8x50 rotor.
• Enhanced Leak Protection: Each tube comes equipped with a polypropylene sealing cap featuring silicone gaskets, designed specifically to prevent leaks during high-speed spins (>10,000 x g) or when handling hazardous materials.
• Filling Requirements: For optimal results, fill the tubes to 80% of their total capacity when centrifuging to ensure safe and effective operation.
• Autoclavable and Leakproof: When used with the supplied Nalgene closure, these tubes are fully autoclavable and designed to be leakproof, although be mindful that repeated autoclaving will naturally reduce the life of polycarbonate materials.
