A compact, fixed-speed 3-D rocker ideal for gel/blot staining and destaining, compatible with multiple blotting boxes — optimized for lab and educational use.
The Bio-Rad Mini Rocker (120 V, SKU 1660710EDU) is a compact, CE-approved three-dimensional rocking platform designed to provide even, gentle agitation required for gel blotting, staining, and destaining procedures. The platform runs at a fixed speed of 24 rpm with a 5° rocking pitch to ensure consistent mixing across blotting trays. It accommodates up to four 8 × 10 cm or two 10 × 20 cm blotting boxes, making it suitable for small to mid-scale blotting or gel staining workflows. With a compact footprint and relatively light load capacity (max ~0.8 kg), it fits readily on crowded lab benches or inside temperature-controlled incubation ovens (when used with compatible gear), offering convenience for labs with limited space. The unit is sold as a standalone rocker and is intended primarily for educational or standard lab blotting/staining tasks.
