High-accuracy tubes for petroleum and water separation analysis, compliant with ASTM D96, D1796, and D2709
These 100 mL ASTM centrifuge tubes are precision-engineered glassware designed for reliable and repeatable phase separation and sediment analysis. Ideal for petroleum testing, these tubes come in long form, short form, and pear-shaped configurations, and feature finely etched white graduation marks for precise volume readings. Select models include capillary tips or ground glass stoppers for enhanced accuracy during trace sediment determination.
