If it works, then I think you got such a good deal you could put in a new door that would fit the centrifuge…then you wouldn’t possibly fuck up the machinery(I wouldn’t want to do it and put it back together, but that’s me)
Good luck!

They are aluminum. I designed and made them as I have a machine shop as well. I can offer similar parts if anyone is interested. Of course, being custom work it’s not too inexpensive though.

plastic won’t hold up to 17,000 RCF and 140F

17k Royal Canadian Fucks.
Posting this until I figure out what RCF actually means, Cunningham-style.

Nope, but it’ll make it up to 3200ish which is the limit of the fuge. Does break jars occasionally, so not ideal
Metal buckets and strainers would definitely be preferable

Relative Centrifugal Force. Same as gravity. So in the case of my centrifuge, 17,000 times the force of gravity. Glass jars completely crush to nothing at this force.

Accuspin 1R. Spinning atm. Don’t recall rotor model
Pictured stainless containers are just about identical to a wide mouth pint jar as far as diameter (literal drop in replacement)
~81.5 mm according to the circumference.
Buckets are 82mm. Or were before we removed a a little to get (embossed) canning jars in there.
Opening is less than 81mm ID.
by about 10mm.

Looks like it’s a few tenths of a mm big for the cense 550
I made a pair of these for @PharmExOregon to test out, it adapts the Beckman 750 bucket to a wide mouth pint
Still need to test them out though

I am beginning to suspect you don’t actually have eyes, just glasses

What you need is about 30 minutes on a lathe to open your fuge cups slightly
