The D1034-28 is the 5 mL stainless steel bead tube — for D2400 BeadBlaster ONLY, 50 tubes per pack at $253. NEW D1034 SUBFAMILY: 5 mL prefilled bead tubes for larger sample volume workflows. CRITICAL CHASSIS RESTRICTION: This SKU is restricted to D2400 BeadBlaster — NOT compatible with D1036 BeadBug 6 (sister D1034-30 zirconium variant supports both D1036 and D2400; D1034-28 stainless steel is D2400-only per universe).
CRITICAL CHASSIS RESTRICTION: Universe label specifies "For use with D2400 BeadBlaster ONLY" — explicitly excludes D1036 BeadBug 6. Confirm chassis compatibility BEFORE procurement.
