DL-CRYO32-PA12 · ANSI/SLAS 127.76 × 85.48 MM
32-Well 2.0 mL Cryovial Aluminum Thermal Block
Bead-blasted 6061-T6 aluminum (8 × 4 grid, cold-block & autoclave ready)
Machined from solid 6061-T6 aluminum for cold-chain biobank cherry-picking, viral/cell stock aliquoting, and heat-block workflows. Pre-chill at -20 °C or +4 °C before placing on the Opentrons deck to keep 32 cryovials cold throughout automated transfers.
Selective Laser Sintering (Vapor-De-Powdered) (±0.15 mm): Resistant to alcohols, aqueous buffers, DMSO, and acetonitrile splashes; wipe down with 70% ethanol or 10% bleach.
