Blue coated wire racks that hold 50 mL tubes in two sizes

Conical 50 mL tubes are tall and top-heavy, so a rack that grips them securely matters when you carry them between a bench, a cold room and a freezer. Heathrow Scientific’s Coated Wire Racks for 50 mL tubes come in two sizes, an 8-well and a 48-well rack, both built from sturdy wire with a robust HDPE coating and three deck levels to help keep tubes secure.

Choose your size

  • HS232461: 8 wells, 5.93 × 2.97 × 3.43 in (15.05 × 7.55 × 8.7 cm)
  • 120770: 48 wells, 10.9 × 8.3 × 3.9 in (27.7 × 21.1 × 9.9 cm)
  • Both: blue, HDPE coated wire, 50 mL tubes, well diameter 25–30 mm

Each size is sold as 1 Each: one rack.

Built for security and durability

Heathrow describes the racks as constructed from sturdy wire with a robust HDPE coating that enhances longevity and resistance to rust and corrosion. The listed features are:

  • Three deck levels, to help keep tubes secure
  • A slotted bottom for extra support
  • Well diameter of 25–30 mm for 50 mL tubes
  • Manufacturer-listed as autoclavable and resistant to chemicals
  • Manufacturer-listed to withstand temperatures down to -40°F

Cleaning, cold storage and chemical exposure

Heathrow lists the racks as autoclavable and resistant to chemicals and says they can withstand temperatures down to -40°F. The product page does not give autoclave cycle conditions, a list of chemicals or a rated load, so confirm those details with Blue Tiger Scientific if a validated cleaning or storage process depends on them.

Cold-room and freezer use

Heathrow’s stated limit is -40°F. If you work with colder storage, such as ultra-low freezers, check the temperature against your process before using the rack there.

Match the rack to the tube

The wells are 25–30 mm in diameter and intended for 50 mL tubes. Measure tubes with unusual caps or collars before ordering.

The 48-well rack for larger batches

The 48-well rack gives a much larger footprint for storing or staging many 50 mL tubes at once. Check shelf and tray clearances before you order: it measures 10.9 × 8.3 × 3.9 in (27.7 × 21.1 × 9.9 cm).

  • Choose the 8-well rack for carrying a few tubes or fitting a small shelf.
  • Choose the 48-well rack for batch storage or staging.

Choosing and ordering a size

Each rack is supplied as 1 Each. The capacity (8 or 48 wells) tells you how many tubes the rack holds; it is not a pack count. Select the option you need on this page. Blue Tiger Scientific confirms availability and delivery details with your order.
