Magnetic Separation Rack for 1.5 mL and 2.0 mL Centrifuge Tubes, 16-Tube Capacity with Sliding Magnet Bar | Made in USA
This Magnetic Separation Rack is manufactured in the USA. It provides fast, reliable magnetic bead separation for high-throughput laboratory workflows, fitting standard 1.5 mL and 2.0 mL microcentrifuge tubes including Eppendorf with clean separations and no stuck beads or messy cleanups.
How the sliding magnet system works
The bright red bar contains 8 high-strength N52 Neodymium magnets. Slide the bar in or out with one hand to instantly pull beads to the tube wall for clean pellet formation and controlled release. The dual-color build (white body plus red slider) ensures instant visibility on any lab bench, while the lightweight engineered polymer construction (under 12 oz) is durable and built for daily use.

Frequently Asked Questions
What tubes fit this magnetic separation rack?
It holds 16 standard 1.5 mL and 2.0 mL microcentrifuge tubes, including Eppendorf, in 10.5 mm slots.
How strong are the magnets and what are they for?
Eight high-strength N52 neodymium magnets sit in the sliding bar — strong enough for magnetic bead-based DNA/RNA/NGS purification, protein purification, immunoprecipitation, and cell separation. Slide the bar in to pull beads to the tube wall, slide it out to release.
Can I use this rack in the cold room or freezer?
Yes for cold-room and refrigerated use. The engineered polymer body is safe at room temperature, refrigerator (2–8 °C), and standard freezer (−20 °C). It is not rated for autoclave or high-heat sterilization; wipe clean with isopropyl alcohol.
Can I get a custom tube size or capacity?
Yes. DC Additive Pros manufactures in-house in the USA, typically in 3–7 days depending on volume and size. Email info@dcadditivepros.com.
