The Laboratory Rocking Shakers category brings together products designed to blend, suspend, dissolve, aerate or maintain samples under controlled motion. In a working laboratory, the category supports more than a single task because it connects preparation, handling, operation and routine maintenance around the same method.
Mixing efficiency depends on vessel geometry, viscosity, volume, speed range and the way energy is transferred into the sample. The practical choice therefore depends on sample volume, viscosity, speed or shaking range, and vessel geometry, as well as how frequently the product will be used and how it connects with the rest of the procedure.
A reliable setup matches the mixing principle and accessory to the vessel, sample properties, temperature requirements and run time. This coordinated approach is particularly useful in chemistry, life science, pharmaceutical, food, environmental and teaching laboratories, where repeatability and clear operating procedures matter. As part of the Laboratory Stirring, Shaking & Mixing range, these products can be selected with the equipment and consumables used before and after this stage.
Our Laboratory Rocking Shakers range
Our collection covers benefits of the corning 35 ez adjustable tilt, the ohaus magnetic microtube box compatible with standard microtubes, capacity and throughput for tubes can rock at once with ohaus clip plates, and the ohaus 100 ml flask clip plate for other vessel sizes, giving laboratories practical choices for routine work and more specialised applications.
Benefits of the Corning 35 EZ adjustable tilt
The adjustable tilt and speed allow you to fine-tune the rocking intensity, which is critical for sensitive Western blots or cell culture applications where gentle motion is required. Selection should take account of sample volume, viscosity, and speed or shaking range. It is also worth checking cleaning, replacement and storage requirements before the item becomes part of a routine procedure. Within the wider method, these products help laboratories achieve uniform, repeatable mixing without excessive splashing, heating or sample damage. They should be reviewed together with associated consumables, accessories and cleaning requirements.
The OHAUS Magnetic Microtube Box compatible with standard microtubes
It is designed to securely hold 100 units of standard 1.5 mL or 2.0 mL microtubes, ensuring they remain organized and stable during the rocking motion. For routine and specialised work, assess viscosity, speed or shaking range, and vessel geometry. Matching these points early helps avoid adapters, consumables or operating limitations being discovered after purchase. In practice, this supports efforts to achieve uniform, repeatable mixing without excessive splashing, heating or sample damage. It also gives staff a clearer and more repeatable procedure when multiple users or shifts share the same equipment.
Capacity and throughput for tubes can rock at once with OHAUS clip plates
Capacity depends on the plate type; OHAUS offers plates for 3, 6, or 12 tubes, and these can often be used in combination to maximize your workstation throughput. For routine and specialised work, assess speed or shaking range, vessel geometry, and temperature control. Matching these points early helps avoid adapters, consumables or operating limitations being discovered after purchase. This is especially valuable when teams need to achieve uniform, repeatable mixing without excessive splashing, heating or sample damage. Consistent handling also reduces the risk of variation between batches or operators.
The OHAUS 100 mL flask clip plate for other vessel sizes
This specific clip plate is engineered for the secure hold of 100 mL flasks; for other sizes, the Universal Clip Plate with elastic bands is a more flexible option. Selection should take account of vessel geometry, temperature control, and mixing accessory. It is also worth checking cleaning, replacement and storage requirements before the item becomes part of a routine procedure. In practice, this supports efforts to achieve uniform, repeatable mixing without excessive splashing, heating or sample damage. It also gives staff a clearer and more repeatable procedure when multiple users or shifts share the same equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the advantage of the Corning 35 EZ adjustable tilt?
The adjustable tilt and speed allow you to fine-tune the rocking intensity, which is critical for sensitive Western blots or cell culture applications where gentle motion is required. Before ordering, confirm speed or shaking range, vessel geometry, and temperature control and any accessories or consumables needed for routine use.
Is the OHAUS Magnetic Microtube Box compatible with standard microtubes?
It is designed to securely hold 100 units of standard 1.5 mL or 2.0 mL microtubes, ensuring they remain organized and stable during the rocking motion. The final choice should reflect speed or shaking range, vessel geometry, and temperature control, as these points influence day-to-day compatibility and repeatability.
How many tubes can I rock at once with OHAUS clip plates?
Capacity depends on the plate type; OHAUS offers plates for 3, 6, or 12 tubes, and these can often be used in combination to maximize your workstation throughput. Before ordering, confirm speed or shaking range, vessel geometry, and temperature control and any accessories or consumables needed for routine use.
Can I use the OHAUS 100 mL flask clip plate for other vessel sizes?
This specific clip plate is engineered for the secure hold of 100 mL flasks; for other sizes, the Universal Clip Plate with elastic bands is a more flexible option. The final choice should reflect speed or shaking range, vessel geometry, and temperature control, as these points influence day-to-day compatibility and repeatability.
What should I check before ordering rocking shakers?
Start with the application and sample, then compare speed or shaking range, vessel geometry, temperature control, and mixing accessory. Check compatibility with existing equipment and confirm any accessories, consumables, calibration items or replacement parts required for routine use. Laboratories should compare speed or shaking range, vessel geometry, and temperature control and document the selected setup for consistent use.
