Centrifuge 5425 is the new laboratory standard with its 24-place capacity and speed up to 21,330 × g. Focusing on standard applications, it is an essential piece of equipment for modern labs ensuring optimal separation. The Centrifuge 5425 serves as a reliable partner especially for high-throughput users expecting a top level of ergonomic comfort and provides great flexibility with its 6 rotor options.
Soft-touch, one-finger closure for ergonomic lid locking
Eppendorf Kit rotor® (F-45-18-11-Kit) for 18 x spin columns and 1.5/2.0 mL tubes (max. 18,111 x g)
This unique rotor offers a solution for a common problem when working with MiniPrep spin column kits: open tube lids that shear off during the elution step. This problem traditionally occurs because standard rotors do not provide enough support for open tube lids during centrifugation. The Eppendorf Kit rotor is designed with an extended rim that serves as a rest for tube caps during centrifugation and protects them from shearing off. Your tube lids will not tear off anymore.
