The Narishige MF-900 Microforge is a specialized laboratory device designed for precision fire polishing and shaping of capillary pipette tips following initial puller fabrication. This microforge enhances gigaohm seal formation and stability, which is critical in applications such as patch-clamp electrophysiology and molecular diagnostics requiring high-quality micropipettes.

Key features include:

  • Optical System: Equipped with two wide-field 10X eyepieces (one fixed focus) and three objective lenses (LWDM 35/0.45, M10/0.25, M5/0.10), providing up to 500x magnification for detailed fire polishing visualization.
  • Independent Heater and Lamp Controls: Front-mounted dials allow precise control of heating elements and illumination intensity, crucial for accurate microforge operation.
  • Dual Manipulators: Separate manipulators for heater and microelectrode positioning enable fine vertical adjustment and closer approach to the electrode tip, enhancing control during fire polishing.
  • Robust Physical Design: Compact footprint measuring 20 cm (W) x 36 cm (D) x ~31 cm (H) and a weight of 6.5 kg makes it suitable for benchtop use in research laboratories focusing on biotechnology and molecular biology workflows.

This microforge supports essential biotechnological processes such as creating micropipettes for gene editing, electrophysiological recordings, and synthetic biology applications. Widely adopted in molecular diagnostics and biomanufacturing environments, it ensures reproducible micropipette tip quality integral to successful experimental outcomes.

Note: This unit is used and sold as-is; performance and functionality may differ from new condition. Buyers should verify operational status prior to integration into critical bioprocessing workflows.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
