Globe Scientific Reinforced PP Tube Stand — 13mm, 31-Place, Three-Tiered Grip, Autoclavable

Globe Scientific Reinforced PP Tube Stand (13mm, 31-Place) holds 13mm tubes in a three-tiered grip that contacts each tube at three points along its length — base, mid-height, and near the top. This triple-contact design eliminates the wobble and tipping that occurs in single-tier flat-bottom racks, where tubes rock on one contact point and fall out during pipetting, vortexing, or bench vibration. Critical for 13mm blood collection tubes that are handled hundreds of times per shift during specimen accessioning.

Three-Tiered Grip for Specimen Safety

In specimen receiving, every blood tube undergoes cap removal, barcode scanning, visual inspection, and placement — each step creating an opportunity for a loosely held tube to tip and spill. A spilled specimen means a patient re-draw, a delayed result, and a biohazard cleanup. The three-tiered tube stand holds each tube securely enough that adjacent tubes can be pulled and replaced without disturbing their neighbors. The reinforced polypropylene maintains this grip integrity even after years of autoclave cycles.
