Model 7550/1/C
Price: $ 430.00
Specialized Ceramic blades for Campden Vibrating Microtomes. These blades are honed with a single bevel for superior slicing.
Specialized Ceramic blades for Campden Vibrating Microtomes. These blades are honed with a single bevel for superior slicing, particularly in tissue from older animals. Ceramic Microtome blades also need to be replaced less frequently than Stainless Steel Microtome blades; meaning less frequent z-axis recalibration is required.
Features
- Made from ultra hard zirconium
- Honed by a process of "lapping" both sides of the single bevel to micron flatness
- Great rigidity, hence a straight cutting edge
- Prolonged slice life, especially in the most difficult of tissues such as young brain or very old brain
- Inert and impervious to corrosion
- Initial higher cost is offset by its longevity
- Fits into a special blade holder now standard on both Integraslice and Vibroslice instruments
- Dimensions: 38mm x 7mm x 0.5mm
