What Is the Transport Tube 5ml Used For?
Small samples collected at a site, clinic or production line are often stored for a time and then sent to a laboratory, and they need a tube that stays closed in transit. The user fills the tube up to its 5 ml capacity, checking the level against the printed graduation, and closes the screw cap with its 1¼ turn thread. The free-standing form lets the tube stand on the bench while it is filled or labelled, and the conical bottom gathers a small volume at the tip so the last of the liquid can be drawn off with a pipette.
What to Specify When Ordering
- Quantity — the number of tubes required.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the tube's dimensions?
The tube holds 5 ml, has an outer diameter of 16 mm and measures 60 mm high with its cap fitted.
How is the tube closed?
It has a screw cap on a 1¼ turn thread, so the cap closes with little more than a single turn.
Will the tube stand up on its own?
Yes. Although it has a conical bottom, the tube is made free-standing, so it can stand upright on the bench without a rack.
Why does a conical bottom help?
A conical bottom gathers a small sample at the tip of the tube, which makes it simpler to draw off the last of the liquid with a pipette.
Is the tube graduated?
The tube carries printed graduation, which gives a guide to how much sample has been filled up to its 5 ml capacity.
