Overview

Rave Scientific offers a wide array of sample holders to handle "Bulk Samples”. The EM-Tec bulk sample holders are designed to hold awkwardly shaped and bulk samples. These sample holders are either rectangular or round and have brackets with screws to securely hold the sample in place.  The bulk sample holders are a cost-effective and practical way to hold smaller to medium size samples.
