Product Description
Small TLC plates can be awkward to develop in a full-size chamber built for 20 x 20 cm plates. This tank family solves that problem by offering both a standard tank for full-size plates and a shorter Shorty tank designed for smaller plates placed long side down.
This listing is for Kimble catalog number 416180-0000: KONTES TLC Developing Tank For 20 x 20 cm Plates With Standard Lid. Both tanks are made of 90 expansion soda-lime glass meeting USP Type III and come with lids. A centering baffle supports the plates during development. The standard tank takes 20 x 20 cm plates and smaller, while the Shorty accepts 5 x 10, 10 x 10 or 10 x 20 cm plates. Order it from LIGHT LABS and keep your lab stocked with genuine DWK Life Sciences products.

- Two formats – Standard tank for 20 x 20 cm plates or Shorty for smaller plates.
