Pipette Pump 10ml Green Karter Thumb Wheel for Glass Pipettes

Description

Product Overview

The Karter Scientific 10ml green pipette pump is engineered for reliable, repeatable liquid handling in demanding laboratory environments. Constructed from high‑quality, chemically resistant polymer, the pump body resists corrosion and maintains dimensional stability over a wide temperature range. The ergonomic thumb wheel delivers smooth, controlled aspiration and dispensing, reducing hand fatigue during extended use. Designed to accept both disposable plastic and standard glass pipettes, the pump offers versatile compatibility, eliminating the need for multiple accessories. Package dimensions of 6.46 x 1.42 x 0.91 inches and a lightweight 1.41‑ounce build make it easy to store and transport.

Usage

Ideal for molecular biology, chemistry, and clinical diagnostics, this pipette pump excels in applications such as enzyme assays, PCR setup, titration, and sample preparation. Researchers appreciate the quick‑release mechanism that allows rapid tip changes without compromising accuracy. The pump’s green coloration provides visual cueing in busy workstations, helping users locate the tool quickly among other equipment. Whether you are working at a bench in a university lab, a high‑throughput screening facility, or a field‑based research station, the pump delivers consistent performance. Its low‑profile design fits comfortably in standard pipette racks, and the thumb wheel operation is intuitive for both seasoned technicians and students learning proper pipetting technique.
