Rainin Bioclean LTS Pipette Tips 20 ul Filtered 8 Racks of 192 Tips Each
Rainin StableRak™ 20 µL Filtered LTS Pipette Tips (17005860) – Case of 1536 Tips
The Rainin 17005860 (SR-L10F) is an industrial, high-throughput liquid handling consumable engineered for heavy production workflows, automated workstations, and rigorous clinical diagnostic platforms. Featuring the proprietary LiteTouch™ System (LTS) cylindrical architecture, these 20 µL maximum volume tips are packaged in specialized, ultra-stable StableRak™ formats containing 192 tips per rack grid. Supplied sterile with high-performance sintered polyolefin filters, this bulk lot of 8 racks delivers a total of 1536 tips meeting BioClean Ultra™ purity guidelines to guarantee zero chemical or aerosol crossover variables.
Technical Performance & Design
- LiteTouch System (LTS) Integration: Engineered with a precise cylindrical collar boundary that mates with Rainin LTS shafts with an exact, positive mechanical stop. This ensures a perfect airtight seal with exceptionally low insertion and ejection forces, dramatically lowering user hand fatigue.
- Double-96 StableRak™ Platform: Accommodates 192 individual tips in a reinforced 16 x 12 grid matrix layout. The heavy-gauge, non-slip rack composite is specifically braced to eliminate deck flexing or structural twisting when subjected to heavy rapid-repetition loading stresses from multi-channel tools or robotic pinning headers.
- Sintered Hydrophobic Filter Barrier: Embedded with a tortuous-path polyolefin filter element that halts aerosol particles, moisture droplets, and micro-volume fluid back-migration before they enter the pipettor barrel, protecting long-term sample and calibration baselines.
- BioClean Ultra™ Certified Purity: Formulated from high-clarity virgin polypropylene and cleanroom-molded to meet absolute trace criteria; certified free from detectable RNase, DNase, human DNA, bacterial endotoxins, proteases, ATP, and PCR inhibitors.

Key Benefits & Applications
- High-Throughput Assays & PCR Setup: The double-density 192-tip matrix enables efficient multi-plate mapping, reducing the need for constant tip-box replenishment during high-volume genomic amplifications, qPCR runs, or next-generation sequencing (NGS) setups.
- Robust Robotic Deck Alignment: The rigid, weighted design of the StableRak grid ensures perfect mechanical X-Y coordinate tracking, preventing tip misalignment or mechanical head crash anomalies in liquid handlers.
- Cleanroom-Approved Packaging Shell: The non-reactive external rack shell resists yellowing and structural degradation when sanitized with aggressive laboratory reagents like 70% Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) or surface decontaminants.
- Precision Sample Touch-Off: The thin-walled, narrow-aperture FinePoint tip geometry ensures clean, complete sample touch-off during ultra-low volume fluid delivery, keeping residual droplet hold-up to a minimum.
