Block for 96 Well Plate, Tapered Point

Product Overview

Ratek’s micro-plate heater blocks are designed to accommodate 96-well microtiter and PCR plates, offering precision heating for sensitive laboratory applications. Engineered for use with Ratek’s DBH2000D (2-place heaters) and larger models, these blocks fit perfectly in two standard block positions. This design allows flexibility in multi-place heaters, where the blocks can be combined with regular blocks or paired (such as two micro-plate blocks in the DBH4000D).

Each block measures 150mm L x 95mm W x 50mm H and is constructed from solid, black anodised aluminium for excellent durability and rapid heat transfer. The anodised finish ensures chemical resistance, while a built-in thermometer reference hole provides accurate temperature readings.

Key Features

• Precision Machining: Each block is CNC-machined from high-grade aluminium for stability and durability.
• Chemical Resistant Coating: The black anodised finish resists corrosion, making the blocks suitable for various lab environments.
• Temperature Monitoring: Integrated thermometer reference hole for real-time temperature accuracy.
• Multi-Brand Compatibility: Designed for Ratek heaters but compatible with many other dry block heater brands.
• Optional Accessories: Evaporation manifolds are available to support specific applications, providing additional versatility.

Applications

When used with a dry block heater, these micro-plate blocks support a variety of laboratory processes, such as:

• Preservation of samples and reactions
• Melting and boiling point measurements
• Enzyme digestion and activity studies
• Incubation and activation of cultures
• Nucleic acid hybridisation
• DNA amplification
