Thermo Scientific Fiberlite F13-14x50cy Centrifuge Rotor: Lightweight, Robust and High-Performance for 50 mL Tubes
The Thermo Scientific Fiberlite F13-14x50cy centrifuge rotor represents a significant advance in centrifugation, offering a unique combination of light weight, robustness and chemical resistance. Made of carbon fibre composite, this fixed-angle rotor is specially designed for the simultaneous processing of up to fourteen 50 mL conical tubes, optimising the throughput of your analyses and preparations. Its innovative design allows high centrifugal forces of up to 29,000 xg (depending on the centrifuge used) to be achieved, significantly reducing the cycle times required for the efficient separation of your sample components.
The exceptional chemical resistance of the composite material ensures increased rotor longevity, even in demanding laboratory environments where various solvents and reagents are frequently used. In addition, its intrinsic light weight facilitates handling during installation and removal from the centrifuge, contributing to a safer and more ergonomic working environment.
A major advantage of Thermo Scientific Fiberlite rotors is that they can be repaired, unlike aluminium rotors, which require complete replacement if damaged. This feature demonstrates the quality and durability of the product, resulting in substantial savings over the long term.
The F13-14x50cy rotor is compatible with a wide range of Thermo Scientific centrifuges, including the Sorvall RC-6 Plus/RC-5, Sorvall Legend XT/XF/XTR, Heraeus Multifuge X3/X3R/X3F/X3FR, Sorvall Legend X1, Multifuge X1 and SL 40F series. This versatility makes it an ideal choice for many research and diagnostic laboratories. It is particularly recommended for pelletising prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells from cell cultures.
The use of Thermo Scientific Nalgene tubes and vials is recommended for optimal compatibility and performance, providing a complete and integrated centrifugation solution. It is important to note that maximum performance may vary depending on the centrifuge model used.
The Fiberlite F13-14x50cy rotor combines performance, durability and economy, making it a wise investment for any laboratory looking to optimise its separation processes.
