Globe Scientific Polypropylene Test Tube, 16 x 100mm Overview
The Globe Scientific Polypropylene Test Tube, 16 x 100mm (12mL) is a no-rim, single-use tube built for routine sample handling and general laboratory work. Molded from polypropylene, this tube resists many common aqueous reagents and tolerates the demands of high-throughput benchtop processing.
Each tube measures 16mm in diameter by 100mm in length and holds 12mL. The no-rim design supports clean, unobstructed loading into racks and automated equipment, while the polypropylene construction offers durability across repeated handling cycles.
Packaged 500 per bag with 4 bags per unit, this SKU ships as a case of 2000 tubes. Labs running steady sample volumes benefit from a consistent, ready-to-use consumable that fits standard 16mm rack openings.

Laboratory Applications
Polypropylene test tubes of this size suit sample collection, dilutions, reagent aliquoting, and short-term storage across clinical, research, and education settings. Their resistance to many aqueous solutions makes them practical for routine chemistry and biology workflows that require disposable, single-use vessels.
Standard 16 x 100mm geometry fits common tube racks, vortexers, and many benchtop instruments, supporting batch processing and organized sample tracking. Technicians often use no-rim tubes where streamlined loading and unloading help maintain pace during repetitive tasks.
This product ships as a case of 2000 tubes, packaged 500 per bag with 4 bags per unit.
