Frequently Asked Questions
Which centrifuges accept these rotors?
All three rotors are designed exclusively for Globe Scientific GCM-24 Series high speed micro centrifuges and seat using the included fixing clips.
What is the maximum operating speed?
Each aluminum alloy rotor is rated to 15,000 rpm when used with the GCM-24 Series and properly secured lid.
What does the O-ring seal provide?
The lid O-ring helps maintain a secure, sealed enclosure during high speed runs, supporting safer aerosol containment and balanced operation.
How are these rotors sold?
Each SKU is sold individually (one rotor per pack). The 0.2 mL PCR rotor is priced separately from the 0.5 mL and 1.5 mL microtube rotors.
