Product Description
When it comes to reliable centrifugation, the right accessories make all the difference. The Angle Heads with Polypropylene Tubes (R-236 M) by Remi are engineered for precision, durability, and chemical resistance, making them a staple in labs across India. Whether you’re a student, researcher, or educator, these angle heads ensure consistent performance in high-speed applications.
Polypropylene tubes are known for their robustness and resistance to most acids, bases, and organic solvents, which means you can trust them with sensitive samples. The angle design allows for efficient pellet collection, reducing the risk of sample loss during centrifugation. This makes them ideal for molecular biology, biochemistry, and clinical diagnostics.
At eqipped, we understand the importance of quality lab supplies. That’s why we offer these angle heads in multiple pack sizes to suit different experimental needs. From small-scale research to bulk processing, you’ll find the right configuration for your workflow.

Why These Angle Heads Stand Out
Not all centrifuge accessories are created equal. Here’s what sets these apart:
First, the polypropylene construction ensures longevity even with frequent use. Unlike glass or other plastics, polypropylene won’t crack or degrade easily, saving you replacement costs in the long run. Second, the angle design (typically 45°) is optimized for maximum sample recovery, which is crucial when working with precious or limited samples.
Third, compatibility matters. These heads are designed to fit standard Remi centrifuges, ensuring a snug and secure fit. No wobbling, no misalignment—just smooth operation every time. And because they’re lightweight, they don’t add unnecessary strain to your centrifuge motor.
Finally, versatility. Whether you’re spinning down cells, separating plasma, or clarifying solutions, these angle heads handle it all. The range of tube sizes means you can switch between small-volume and large-volume samples without skipping a beat.
Applications in Real-Lab Scenarios
Wondering if these are right for your work? Here’s where they shine:
In molecular biology labs, researchers use them for DNA/RNA extraction, where pellet visibility and recovery are critical. The angle design helps in compacting pellets at the tube’s bottom, making them easier to resuspend or analyze.
Clinical labs rely on them for blood serum separation. The chemical resistance of polypropylene means no leaching or contamination, which is non-negotiable when dealing with patient samples. Educators in universities use them for student practicals because they’re easy to handle and clean.
Industrial labs, especially in pharmaceuticals or food testing, appreciate the durability. Frequent autoclaving or exposure to harsh buffers? No problem. These heads maintain their integrity through countless cycles.
Choosing the Right Pack Size
With so many options, how do you pick? It depends on your throughput and sample volume:
For high-throughput labs, the 36 × 15 ml or 48 × 1.5 ml packs are cost-effective and reduce frequent reordering. If you’re working with microvolumes, the 6 strips of 8 × 0.2 ml are perfect for PCR or ELISA prep.
Educational institutions often prefer the 12 × 50 ml or 8 × 100 ml packs—they’re versatile for class demonstrations and student experiments. Meanwhile, research labs might opt for the 6 × 200 ml for large-scale protein purification or cell culture work.

Maintenance and Care Tips
To get the most out of your angle heads:
Always balance your centrifuge before running. Uneven loads can damage both the heads and the machine. Clean the heads with mild detergent and rinse thoroughly—avoid abrasive scrubbers that can scratch the polypropylene.
For sterilization, autoclaving is safe, but check the manufacturer’s guidelines for temperature limits. Store them in a dry, dust-free environment to prevent contamination. If you notice cracks or warping, it’s time to replace them—compromised heads can lead to sample loss or equipment damage.
Safety Considerations
While polypropylene is generally safe, always:
Wear gloves when handling chemical-treated samples to avoid skin contact. Never exceed the maximum speed rating of your centrifuge or the angle heads. Inspect tubes for cracks before each use—even minor damage can cause leaks under high G-forces.
FAQs
What centrifuges are compatible with these angle heads?
These heads are designed for Remi centrifuges, specifically models that support R-236 M accessories. Check your centrifuge’s manual or contact eqipped for compatibility details.
Can I use these tubes with corrosive chemicals?
Yes, polypropylene is resistant to most acids, bases, and organic solvents. However, avoid prolonged exposure to strong oxidizing agents like nitric acid.
How do I clean these angle heads?
Use a mild lab detergent and warm water. For sterilization, autoclave at 121°C for 15–20 minutes. Avoid bleach or harsh abrasives.
What’s the maximum speed these heads can handle?
The speed limit depends on your centrifuge model. Typically, they’re rated for up to 4,000–6,000 RPM, but always refer to your machine’s specifications.
Do you offer bulk discounts for educational institutions?
Yes! eqipped provides special pricing for universities and research labs. Contact our sales team with your requirements for a customized quote.
