Test Tube Stand (Wire Pattern)

An economical substitute for wire racks, here are these submersible, autoclavable racks which are stackable when empty. These are available in different colors and are made of a special blend of Polypropylene that makes it sink in a water bath and maintain their stability even in agitated water. These space-saving racks can easily be disassembled for cleaning purposes. The base is in the form of a grid with square openings and has fold-up sides and end bars that lock into rack tops
