The Yamato 232086 is a test-tube holder for Yamato SA300 and SA320 laboratory shakers — a mounting-stage rack that secures up to 18 test tubes (16.5–18 mm diameter, 160–190 mm long) for horizontal shaking, so a batch of tubes agitates uniformly in place of manual mixing. It is the dedicated test-tube holder for the SA300/320 platform (holders are sold separately from the shaker).

Application Profile
The 232086 is the test-tube holder for the SA300/320, sized for 16.5–18 mm tubes up to 190 mm long and holding 18 at once (SA holders are sold separately so one shaker reconfigures for different vessels — see shaker-selection). Mounted for horizontal shaking, it agitates a full tube rack uniformly — the reliable way to dissolve solids, resuspend pellets, mix reagents, or run tube-scale extractions without hand-shaking each tube. It seats on the mounting stage and releases easily, swapping with other SA holders as the workflow changes (see mixing-agitation).

Ordering & Configuration
add to your shaker order. The 232086 is a holder accessory for SA300/320 shakers. Confirm your tube diameter and length fall within 16.5–18 mm × 160–190 mm and that your shaker is an SA300/320. Add it to your shaker quote or order alongside other holders.
SA300/320 holders, by vessel: the 232086 holds test tubes (18 × 16.5–18 mm); companion holders cover centrifugal tubes (232087), Erlenmeyer flasks (232097), and separating funnels (232096/232089). Choose holders to match the vessels your protocol uses.
