VWR Universal Shaking Tray for 12 L Water Bath 10 x 10.25 in.

VWR Universal Shaking Tray for 12 L Water Bath (10144-844) – 10 x 10.25 in.

The VWR 10144-844 is a precision-engineered universal shaking tray designed to drop directly into VWR 12-liter shaking water baths. Measuring 10 x 10.25 inches, this heavy-duty tray provides a highly stable platform for uniform liquid agitation, critical for cell culture, hybridization, and chemical reaction protocols. Featuring a universal grid pattern, it allows laboratory operators to mix and match various sizes of flask clamps, test tube racks, and microplate holders on a single surface, maximizing sample throughput.

Technical Performance & Design

• Universal Customization Grid: Engineered with a pre-drilled multi-hole mounting matrix that accepts a wide variety of clip styles, allowing technicians to configure custom layouts for Erlenmeyer flasks, beakers, and vials.
• High-Grade Stainless Steel Construction: Fabricated from premium 304 stainless steel, ensuring excellent structural rigidity, long-term corrosion resistance, and complete compatibility with heated bath fluids and sanitizing agents.
• Optimized Hydrodynamics: Perforated or slatted design elements allow for the unobstructed circulation of water around the base of every sample vessel, ensuring rapid thermal stabilization and excellent temperature uniformity.
• Secure Quick-Fit Mounting: Designed for seamless tool-free installation, the tray snaps securely onto the bath’s internal reciprocating or orbital shaking mechanism to prevent slipping or vibration dampening at high RPMs.
