It's everything you could ever want for precise dispensing combined in one device: With the new award-winning PETTE fix and vario pipettes, IKA combines the most popular features of this laboratory classic. With uncompromisingly accurate performance and the desired reproducibility, the new PETTE is also incredibly comfortable in your hand. This makes it ideal for a wide range of applications and frequent laboratory use.
IKA pipettes include three exchangeable grips in different shapes and materials. Designed for both right-handers and left-handers, as well as for people with small or large hands, they are guaranteed to fit comfortably in your hand. The minimal frictional and spring forces also ensure ergonomically-friendly dispensing; without any effort. One-handed adjustment of the volume is possible using the multi-functional knob. Moreover, the tip of the pipette can be replaced regardless of your hand position, while the volume adjustment is securely locked. Together with its pleasantly smooth surface and its low weight, the ergonomic design makes for an extremely pleasant work experience.
The tip cone and piston are coated with a high-quality coating* (DLC, diamond like carbon). PETTE fix and vario are constructed in a functional and minimalistic way and consist of a very few clearly-arranged parts. This combination makes for extra-sturdy pipettes that delivers reliable results day after day. Moreover, they are easy to clean.
The mechanical volume display shows the set volume in large numbers and is easy to read no matter how you hold it - even while dispensing.
The housing and grip are thermally separated by an air layer. This layer of air insulates the pipette so that it does not heat up in your hand. This design reduces the volume errors that are typical of pipettes.
As many parts as necessary and as few as possible: Thanks to its sophisticated design, the volume unit with piston and seal can be disassembled and cleaned in just a few simple steps. If adjustment is necessary, it can be easily undertaken without the need for tools.
The different colors of the dispensing heads make it easier to choose the right pipette tip.
