Product Highlights
Fast Cooling
High-conductivity aluminum helps samples cool quickly when the block is placed in an ice bath.
Portable & Power-Free
The compact blocks require no electricity. Simply place the block in an ice bath wherever sample cooling is needed.
Reusable & Cost-Effective
Durable aluminum construction supports repeated laboratory use, providing a practical and economical solution for routine sample cooling.
Stable Sample Organization
Precisely machined wells keep tubes upright, separated and clearly positioned while samples are maintained on ice.
