26 mL PFA Standard Tube, Rounded Interior, Threaded Top, High-Purity Sample Tube, each

The 26mL Standard Tube is a robust and versatile tube made from non-breakable PFA. It features a rounded interior and a threaded top, providing reliable sample handling and long-term storage in extreme temperatures.

Features:

• Service temperature range of PFA is -328°F to 500°F (-200°C to 260°C)
• PFA non-breakable material
• Threaded top for long-term storage

Specifications:

• Volume: 26mL
• Material: PFA
• Service Temperature Range: -328°F to 500°F (-200°C to 260°C)

Why PFA:

• Resists strong acids, bases, solvents and oxidizers with no degradation
• Wide temperature tolerance suits cryogenic storage, autoclaving and high-temperature applications
• Molded by Savillex, with over 40 years of fluoropolymer molding experience

Cleaning and Sterilization:

• Initial cleaning: rinse thoroughly inside and out with deionized water (DIW); for a more thorough clean, immerse in a 1% mild alkaline detergent solution (such as Micro 90) heated to 100°C, then cool and rinse well with DIW
• Do not clean with brushes or abrasives; scratches trap metals and organic contaminants and prevent effective cleaning
• For ultratrace sample digestion work, wipe gently to remove residue, leach in hot 6M HNO₃ (about 100°C) in a Savillex vial cleaning system, and rinse thoroughly with DIW
• Sterilize by autoclave at 121°C for 90 minutes with the closure removed; PFA can be sterilized by all routine methods except gamma radiation and e-beam
