Frequently Asked Questions
1. What are the benefits of wall-mounted vs. benchtop racks?
Wall-mounted racks save valuable bench space and can be positioned directly above sinks, while benchtop or freestanding models offer the flexibility to move the rack to different workstations as needed.
2. How do I know if a rack is chemically resistant?
Racks made from PVC, Polystyrene (PS), or PE-coated wire are specifically designed to resist moisture and the typical chemicals used in laboratory cleaning processes.
3. Can the pegs on the draining racks be adjusted?
Many models, such as those from Bürkle and Heathrow Scientific, feature removable or plug-in pegs that allow you to reconfigure the layout to accommodate larger flasks or smaller test tubes.
4. Do these racks include drainage systems?
Yes, several professional models include an integrated drip channel or a removable drainage tube to direct excess water away from the rack and keep your surfaces dry.
