GTR-HD-50H Tube Holder Overview
The GTR-HD-50H Tube Holder from Globe Scientific is a dedicated accessory built for the GTR-HD Series Tube Rotators. It secures 24 tubes in a horizontal orientation, with positions sized for 50mL microcentrifuge tubes. Labs running continuous sample mixing rely on this holder to keep tube placement consistent across each cycle.
Horizontal loading promotes thorough end-over-end agitation, supporting even suspension of cells, reagents, and viscous samples. Each of the 24 positions is arranged to balance load distribution when the rotator is in motion, helping protect sample integrity during extended runs.
Designed as a direct-fit component, this holder pairs only with GTR-HD Series rotators. Technicians can swap holders to match throughput needs without reconfiguring the instrument, making it a practical addition to shared bench equipment.

Laboratory Applications
Horizontal tube holders support sample mixing protocols where gentle, continuous inversion is required. Molecular biology, cell culture, and immunoassay workflows often call for steady agitation to prevent settling of beads, particles, or cells in suspension. This holder gives technicians a fixed-position rack for batching 50mL tube work on a compatible rotator.
Use in hybridization, extraction, and reagent homogenization tasks benefits from consistent tube placement across runs. Shared labs handling multiple sample sets at once can load a full set of 24 tubes, standardizing mixing time and reducing manual handling between steps.
Ordering & Bulk Pricing
The GTR-HD-50H is sold individually (1 EA) at a list price of $234.60. Master case quantities are not listed for this item; contact for specification on case packs.
