TrippNT Straight Triple Safety Shelf | 3-Tier PVC Bench Organizer with Safety Lip 50113

TrippNT Straight Triple Safety Shelf — Three-Tier White PVC Wall-Mount Bench Organizer with 1½″ Safety Lip

The TrippNT Straight Triple Safety Shelf (SKU 50113) is a three-shelf wall-mounted laboratory bench organizer engineered for environments where reagent and supply organization must simultaneously reduce bench clutter, prevent spill migration between shelf levels, and survive the daily chemical exposure common in analytical, clinical, and research laboratory settings. At 23¼″ W × 16″ H × 6⅝″ D, the 50113 provides three equally spaced horizontal PVC shelves, each with a 1½-inch safety lip along the front and side edges. This raised lip is the defining specification: it contains drips and minor reagent spills at the shelf level, preventing cross-contamination to lower shelves, bench surfaces, and equipment below. The 1½-inch lip height is sized to retain standard 500mL and 1L reagent bottles, pH buffer containers, and Kimwipe boxes without requiring secondary containment trays. The straight (non-stepped) shelf geometry keeps each shelf at the same depth, allowing the 50113 to be used as a wall-mount unit or a freestanding tiered organizer on any flat bench surface.

Constructed from 1/4-inch white PVC, the 50113 is fully compatible with standard laboratory disinfectants and is not affected by routine reagent splash from strong acids, bases, and organic solvents at the concentrations typically encountered in storage and staging applications. The keyhole back panel is not used for wall mounting on this model — the 50113 is a freestanding, set-on-bench design that ships fully assembled and can be repositioned between workstations without tools. Weight-bearing capacity per shelf exceeds the loaded weight of three 1L reagent bottles. Ships fully assembled, 5.37 lb. For a configuration that maximizes vertical clearance between shelves for taller vessels (up to 12-inch-tall bottles), see the TrippNT step shelf family (50109 Large Step Shelf, RAYNEU session scope).

Technical Specifications

Laboratory and Clinical Applications

The TrippNT 50113 is specified for benchtop reagent and supply staging wherever the safety lip design reduces housekeeping risk: analytical chemistry labs (acid/base reagent staging, indicator solution organization), clinical chemistry workbenches (sample preparation supply staging), molecular biology labs (buffer and reagent staging by protocol), pharmacopeia QC labs (USP reference standard staging), food and beverage QC benches (titration reagent organization), environmental testing labs (field reagent and consumable staging), hospital pharmacy compounding rooms (reagent and supply staging under USP <797>), histology and pathology grossing stations (stain and reagent organization), BSL-2 and BSL-3 research workbenches, dental operatory supply organization (material and consumable staging), veterinary clinic workbench supply management, and educational chemistry labs where student reagent staging requires a contained and organized format. Also widely specified for use inside fume hoods and biosafety cabinets as an interior supply staging unit.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the clearance height between shelves on the 50113?

The 50113 spans 16 inches total height across 3 shelves, with each shelf having a 1½-inch lip. The usable clearance between shelf surfaces is approximately 4¾″ per inter-shelf space, which accommodates most 250mL and 500mL reagent bottles, standard Kimwipe boxes (4&frac58;″ tall), 15mL and 50mL conical tube racks, and standard wash bottle bodies (typically 3½″ to 4¾″ diameter). For 1L reagent bottles with screw-cap heights typically reaching 11″, the 50113 bottom shelf can be used as a floor-level staging area while the upper two shelves handle consumables. For bottles taller than 4¾″, the TrippNT step shelf (50109 or 50123) provides greater inter-shelf clearance.

Is the 50113 suitable for use inside a chemical fume hood?

Yes, with some considerations. The 1/4-inch PVC construction is chemically compatible with the reagent classes stored in most analytical fume hoods. The non-slip shelf surface and 1½-inch lip help contain minor spills that occur during reagent handling inside the hood. The unit’s 6&frac58;″ depth fits comfortably on standard 24-inch-deep fume hood work surfaces, occupying approximately 25% of the hood depth and leaving the remainder clear for active work. Ensure the unit is not blocking the hood sash line or the exhaust baffle when positioned inside the hood. The all-PVC construction with no metal components eliminates corrosion risk from acid vapors.
