The infinity Rockers (IR)
The last rocker you will ever need to buy! The Infinity Rockers are designed with constant, heavy-duty use in mind, and they will last for many years  unlike all those rockers with one-year warranties. Ultra quiet, they are ideal for many applications including: mixing, gel staining and destaining, blotting, cell culture, hybridization, washing, etc
/
Three Platform Sizes
Infinity Rockers come in models with: 11 x 14, 8 x 9, and 20 x 16 inch (28 x 36, 20 x 23, and 51 x 41 cm) platforms.

Stacking Trays
Removable Tier-2 stacking trays double the support surface area. The trays just snap onto the platform and their spring loaded legs hold them securely in place.

Triple and Quadruple Deckers
Stack-3 and Stack-4 versions provide 3 or 4 times as much capacity. The 3 or 4 platforms each tilt about their own axis. 

4 Year Warranty
We offer a 4 year warranty because Infinity Rockers are solidly built in the USA. The rugged construction includes heavy duty chassis and platforms. Long life brushless motors drive the rocking. These rockers are designed to run for many years of continuous use.

Digital Speed Control
The Infinity Rockers have a microcontroller to accurately control the speed. The speed will remain constant, even as heavy items are added or removed from the platform. And the rocking can be paused and resumed by flipping a switch. Rocking speed can be set from 6 rock cycles an hour (0.1 per minute) to 80 per minute in increments of 1 RPM. And rocking can be even slower, or even be stationary with punctuated periods of rocking with custom programs, as described below.

Extremely Quiet Operation
The Infinity Rockers are incredibly quiet due to their high quality motor and vibration isolation mounts inside the unit.

Programmable
We can provide custom rocking programs for your Infinity Rockers upon request at checkout for an additional cost (limitations apply for XL). The platform can be set to pause at a particular angle, vary rocking speed, etc. For example, the platform can move slowly in one direction, pause, and then return quickly. Or it can be set to have very long pauses between cycles, such as rock for just 3 minutes once a day. Several customers use our rockers for microfluidic applications. For applications such as viral transduction or plasmid transfection, you may want short periods of gentle rocking for mixing, separated by 30 minute stationary periods to allow transduction to occur. And rocking can be asymmetric, meaning fast in one direction, and slowly back, such as for mixing microliter volumes to avoid depletion zones during hybridization.

Custom Sizes
Get a rocker that fits your needs! Upon request, rockers can be made to accommodate specific platform sizes and weights.

Rugged Construction
These very sturdy (and quiet!) rockers sport heavy-duty construction. A top grade brushless motor drives the rocking and ensures very long life.

Benchmark™ QuadRocker™

• Accepts up to four tiers
• User-adjustable platform configuration
• Adjustable rocking speed and tilt angle
• Cold room and incubator safe
• Includes four large platforms

Benchmark’s QuadRocker™ features a unique, tiered attachment system that accepts up to four platforms. Unlike traditional single-platform rockers, the QuadRocker™ includes a base level as well as three additional stacking platforms, providing a total work surface of over 750 sq. in.

For most gel blotting, washing, and staining applications, the rocker can be installed with all four rocking platforms. For applications requiring larger vessels, the quantity and height of the platforms can easily be customized to provide a maximum clearance of up to 8¼ in (21 cm). The QuadRocker’s versatility is further enhanced by digital speed and timer control, as well as user-adjustable tilt angle.

The compact footprint and unmatched capacity of the QuadRocker™ make it an efficient way to rock!

The Labnet Economy Rockers, ProBlot 25 and 25XL, are basic rocking platforms that have been designed for a long life and trouble-free service.

Rocker speed is adjustable to provide the gentle motion required for staining fragile gels as well as the more vigorous action necessary for washing blots. The rocking movement is fixed at ±7°.

The platform surfaces are covered with nonslip rubber pads to prevent objects from moving during operation. Elastic tie downs are available to secure in place bags, boxes, tubes and other containers. The platform assemblies pivot on permanently lubricated ball bearings for quiet, maintenance-free operation. The ProBlot 25 platform measures 28.9 x 20.3 cm, while the ProBlot 25XL platform is slightly larger at 30 x 30 cm. For increasing the work area without sacrificing valuable bench space, a second platform can be stacked on the first.

The ProBlot 25 and 25XL Rockers can be used safely in temperature controlled environments up to 85°C. Their low profile and compact size make them perfect for use in small incubators.

• Ideal for mixing samples in blood and centrifuge tubes
• Fixed speed and pitch
• Safe for cold room use
• CSA compliant
• 1 year warranty

The GyroMini is a smaller version of our popular GyroTwister. Its small size makes it ideal for mixing samples in blood and centrifuge tubes.

Like the GyroTwister, the GyroMini combines the motions of an orbital shaker and a rocker to produce a three dimensional action. The result is a thorough yet gentle mixing without foaming. Both the speed and tilt angle of this small shaker are fixed to provide the optimal level of agitation for mixing samples in small containers.

The GyroMini is supplied with a dimpled mat for holdidng tubes firmly in place. For temperature sensitive samples, the GyroMini can be used in a cold room.
