VWR® snap-cap centrifuge tubes are made of high-clarity, low-binding, virgin polypropylene.

• Tubes can withstand up to 25000 ×g
• Certified RNase- and DNase-free

The tubes have a 16 mm diameter, which is identical to standard 15 ml tubes.

Tubes feature dual gradations at every 0,2 ml and 0,5 ml level. They are supplied with an attached cap that provides a tight, leak-proof seal. Caps can be easily opened with one hand, and provide a secure seal from –86 to 80 °C (–122 to 176 °F). The centre of the cap has a thin membrane area for easy access by a syringe or needle. This ensures compatibility with existing centrifuge rotors.
