General purpose 16 mL polypropylene test tubes, 17 x 100 mm, case of 1,000
These Caplugs Evergreen round bottom test tubes are 17 x 100 mm and hold 16 mL. They are made of natural polypropylene, which resists more solvents and chemicals than polystyrene, and are packed in bulk, 1,000 tubes to a case, for high-volume use.
Evergreen offers its test tubes in more sizes than any other manufacturer, and this size is a common choice for general testing and sample collection in the lab.
