Product description

Carbon fiber fixed-angle rotor, 6 × 500 mL capacity, 12,000 rpm, 24,471 × g max, for Sorvall LYNX 4000/6000 bioprocessing

The Thermo Scientific Fiberlite F12-6X500 LEX is a fixed-angle centrifuge rotor designed specifically for the Sorvall LYNX 4000 and 6000 superspeed centrifuge platforms, widely used in molecular diagnostics, bioprocessing, and biotechnology research involving large-volume sample processing. It features a carbon fiber composite construction for enhanced mechanical strength and corrosion resistance, essential in demanding laboratory and biomanufacturing environments.

Key technical specifications include:

  • Rotor type: fixed-angle at 20°
  • Capacity: 6 × 500 mL tubes, suitable for bulk biological samples and culture harvesting
  • Max rotational speed: 12,000 rpm
  • Maximum relative centrifugal force (RCF): 24,471 × g, enabling efficient pelleting of cells, subcellular fractions, and microorganisms
  • Minimum RCF: 6,612 × g
  • K factor: 1,388, optimized for rapid sedimentation
  • Tube dimensions: 70 mm diameter × 160 mm length
  • Auto-locking lid mechanism ensures secure and safe operation during high-speed centrifugation

This rotor is integral to workflows requiring high-capacity centrifugal separation, including large-volume lysate clarification, bacterial and yeast culture harvesting, and subcellular isolation protocols. Its carbon fiber composite design enhances durability and longevity in frequent biopharmaceutical production pipelines and synthetic biology research laboratories.

Tested extensively for mechanical integrity and operational performance, this rotor supports high stability and balance under load. The unit meets rigorous validation standards, making it a reliable choice for critical biotechnological and clinical applications requiring robust high-speed centrifugation.

Ideal for research professionals in cell biology, industrial biotechnology, and biomedical engineering, the Fiberlite F12-6X500 LEX rotor facilitates efficient processing of large sample volumes, essential for gene editing workflows, bulk biomass pelleting, and large-scale molecular cloning procedures.

In summary, the Thermo Scientific Fiberlite F12-6X500 LEX rotor combines high capacity, safety features, and proven performance in superspeed centrifugation, making it a staple asset in advanced bioprocessing and life science laboratories.

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.
