Stainless Steel Beads 

Stainless steel beads are ideal for homogenizing biological samples. Due to their high density, they are suitable for homogenizing tough and soft samples or for special applications such as bacterial isolation. This blend of beads has diameters from 0.9 mm to 11 mm. Stainless Steel UFO Beads are also available!

RNase-free stainless steel beads undergo a special cleaning process. They are guaranteed and certified to be RNase-free. RNase-free stainless steel beads are sold by the 4 mL package.
