Conical Centrifuge Tubes 15 mL

These sterile polypropylene tubes come in packs of five hundred and are designed for laboratory centrifugation. Each tube holds fifteen millilitres and is graduated in half-millilitre increments for accurate volume measurement. The conical bottom aids pellet formation during separation protocols. They are supplied with polyethylene closures included.

Build Quality and Daily Handling

The tubes are moulded from autoclavable polypropylene with a natural body colour and a seventeen-millimetre diameter. Polyethylene caps seal the tubes for storage or transport and can be removed quickly during routine workflows. At one hundred and twenty millimetres tall, the tubes fit standard rotor adapters and racks without modification. Sterile packaging means they are ready for aseptic techniques straight from the tear pack.

Centrifugal Limits and Usage Constraints

The maximum rated relative centrifugal force is eleven thousand times gravity, which sets the upper speed for safe operation. Exceeding this limit risks tube deformation or failure during high-speed runs. The fifteen-millilitre capacity restricts sample volume, so larger fractions require alternative vessels. Graduations stop at the nominal volume, making precise reading above that level impractical.

Questions about this item

What maximum relative centrifugal force can these 15 mL conical tubes withstand?

The tubes are rated for a maximum relative centrifugal force of 11,000 x g, which is the practical limit for safe operation in a centrifuge rotor.

What are the body diameter and overall height dimensions for the 17 mm tubes in a 500 pack?

Each tube has a body diameter of 17 mm and an overall height of 120 mm, so verify that your rotor buckets or adapters accommodate these exact measurements.

Are the graduated polypropylene tubes supplied sterile and ready for immediate aseptic use?

Yes, the tubes are supplied sterile in tear packaging with polyethylene closures included, allowing direct aseptic handling without prior autoclaving.
