Block for 20 x 2.0ml Microcentrifuge Tubes

Product Overview

The SB2.0 heater block by Ratek is a versatile, precision-engineered solution for laboratory applications, compatible with the entire range of Ratek dry block heaters and suitable for many other brands. Constructed from solid, black anodised aluminium, each block is CNC-machined to exact dimensions of 95mm L x 75mm W x 50mm H.

This robust build ensures rapid heat transfer, resulting in quick block heat-up times when used with a Ratek heater. Additionally, the anodised finish optimises the block’s high-temperature uniformity, while a built-in thermometer hole allows for reliable temperature monitoring.
