Eppendorf F-45-36-8 Rotor: Performance and Capacity in Microcentrifugation
The Eppendorf F-45-36-8 is a 45° fixed rotor specifically designed for 0.5 mL microtubes and is an ideal choice for molecular biology or biomedical research laboratories that require precision, compactness and capacity. This model can process up to 36 samples simultaneously, a high density that optimises productivity without compromising centrifugal performance. Thanks to its compatibility with Eppendorf refrigerated microcentrifuges such as the 5415 R, it fits perfectly into work routines requiring a stable centrifugation temperature.
The rotor reaches a maximum speed of 13,200 rpm, generating a relative centrifugal force of up to 16,110 x g, making it ideal for fast and efficient separations. Its aluminium lid ensures reliable closure and mechanical strength suitable for repeated cycles. The rotor can also accommodate 0.2 mL PCR tubes with the use of a dedicated adapter, offering flexibility of use according to experimental requirements.
Designed to last, the F-45-36-8 is a robust accessory that complements the Eppendorf centrifuge range by offering increased capacity compared to standard 24-position rotors. Its structure is designed for intensive use while ensuring balanced sample distribution during centrifugation, limiting vibrations and promoting reproducible results.
With dimensions suitable for standard microtubes and a secure lid system, this rotor facilitates routine handling while ensuring high safety during use. The absence of adapters for 0.5 mL tubes simplifies the process, and compatibility with adapters for smaller tubes maintains valuable versatility.
This rotor is a great choice for labs looking to optimise the number of samples processed per cycle without compromising on centrifuge performance or safety.
