These metal cryo grid boxes are made of autoclave-compatible anodized aluminum, allowing for a more robust alternative to conventional plastic cryo grid boxes.

These storage boxes are the first for both 3mm and 6mm High Pressure Freezing Hats/Planchets/Carriers. The 3mm HPF Hat Storage Box (#160-53) has four pockets that can each hold up to two 3mm HPF hats. The 6mm HPF Hat Storage Box (#160-61) has two pockets that can each hold up to two 6mm HPF hats.

These boxes allow you to store your HPF samples securely under liquid nitrogen in a container with the same footprint as traditional cryo-EM grid boxes, making it easily compatible with cryo-EM workstations and storage systems (pucks, like the PELCO SafeKeep™, or similar).

Each storage box is:

• Autoclave-compatible anodized aluminum
• Available in six different colors
• Permanently laser-marked with unique serial numbering to help in the tracking and organization of samples

These storage boxes come supplied in packs of six with either Low Profile Lids or without lids. The base can be used with other types of cryo grid box lids, such as Clear Pin Lids (#160-47C) or Metal Pin Lids (#160-47M).
