holds 50 transmission electron microscopy grids, compartments widely spaced for ease of use
Widely used compact grid box for 50 standard 3.05mm TEM grids with smoothly sliding clear plastic cover is matched to a tough, clean, self-lubricating base. The diamond-shaped grid compartments are designed to minimize awkward wrist or hand movements. The depth of the holes restricts grid movement when transported. The materials selected for the PELCO® Grid Box are static dissipative to avoid static charges on the grids. Dimensions: 77.5 x 41 x 9mm.
Holds up to 50 tabbed, 3.05mm TEM grids in alphanumeric labeled compartments. The box is similar to #160 Grid Storage Box except that the body is made deeper to accommodate the extra length necessary when PELCO® Tabbed TEM Grids are used. Dimensions: 77.5 x 41 x 9mm.
Grid Storage Boxes style 160 Standard and style 161 Tabbed may be ordered consecutively numbered. Numbers are permanently stamped into the end as shown. 100 piece minimum for numbering.
Choosing Your Numbers: Use No. 160-7 or 161-7 when ordering a 1-100 numbered set and use No. 160-9 or 161-9 for a special number sequence. Note: special numbering sequence sets are limited to four digits and are non-returnable. Orders are non-cancellable.
TEM grid identification cards which fold (in thirds) close the same size as the PELCO® Grid Storage Box #160 or #161. Can be stored with the gridbox in plastic bag or envelope. Fifty spaces are provided with alphanumeric listing, and two spaces next to it are used for data such as experiment number, patient or case number, etc. Pad of 100 sheets. Courtesy of Robert F. Bils.

Grid ID Card Folding and Placement Instructions
for 100 Grids
Intended for use in both routine grid handling and long term grid storage. Holds 100 transmission electron microscopy grids. Each of the diamond shaped compartments will accept a standard 3.05mm grid. Each position has a letter and number molded into the surface of the box. To further ease grid handling, the plastics are anti-static treated. A central access position in the lid reduces the number of grids exposed when selecting any particular grid. Dimensions: 85 x 59 x 7mm.
Grid Storage Record Card A record card is supplied free with each SB 100 grid box. The folding card has a durable coated exterior and the interior is suitable for writing with normal pen or pencil.
Numbered on the front of the box, and on the end. The individual box numbers are never repeated, they are truly unique. They are also supplied in sequence.
for routine handling and long time storage of 50 standard size TEM grids
The clear cover can be rotated smoothly once the slight resistance of the park position has been overcome, exposing a maximum of 2 or 3 diamond shaped holes at a time. The material is antistatic and the cover is self-lubricating, reducing friction. The 50 diamond shaped holes have an alphanumeric reference system and each box is supplied with an indexed record card. The boxes can be stacked. Dimensions: 75 x 65 x 7.3mm. Also available with unique, individual, identification number stamped on each box.
These convenient smaller 25-grid storage boxes are for experiments that require fewer grids, for those users who prefer to have a separate grid box for each experiment or sample. Intended for both routine grid handling and long term storage, they also make a low cost alternative for multi-user facilities. The plastic material contains a special anti-static additive.
The ergonomic design of the grid box with side tabs to allow it to be firmly gripped on either side while sliding the cover back on the box to reveal the grids a row of five at a time provides easy access to your grids. Additionally one side tab has a matte finish that is ideal for notation with a Fine-tip Lab Marker.
Dimensions: 56mm L x 36mm W x 6mm H
The GSB50 and GSB100 TEM Grid Storage Boxes are used to store TEM grids for routine grid handling, transport and long term TEM grid storage for standard 3.05mm grids. Compartments are diamond shaped for safe grid storage. Easy position identification with number/letter combination printed on the white grid body. Both body and clear sliding lid are anti-static treated. A paper grid storage record card with printed ID numbers is included with both the GSB50 and GSB100 TEM Grid Storage Box. Dimensions for both boxes 75 x 55 x 6.5mm.
Innovations integrated in the MEM grid boxes are:
This robust PELCO® TEM Grid Vacuum Desiccator holds up to 50 TEM grids in the grid box with a rotary lid with a slot hole to prevent the rest of the grids from falling out. Storage under vacuum eliminates contamination or dust and is ideal to preserve hygroscopic samples. The use of durable, non-outgassing, anodized aluminum and Viton® O-rings makes it suitable for pumping down to 10-3 mbar. The desiccator is capable of holding vacuum for many months. The metal vacuum valve has a PTFE shaft seal. Use a small vacuum pump to evacuate. Vacuum connection for pump-down is a 1/4" (6.35mm) barb fitting. The desiccator comes with a standard clear acrylic lid. An optional quartz glass and clear anodized aluminum lid is available for where cleanliness is paramount.
Overall size without vacuum valve is ø76 x 35mm (3 x 1.4"). Also available as a Pin Stub Vacuum Desiccator (#16179) or Vacuum Desiccator for Hitachi M4 Stubs (#16179-4).
GSB-100 Storage Box for 100 FIB lift out grids or storing standard 3mm TEM grids flat. No adhesive in tray (made from ABS). Cavity size is 3.34 x 3.34 x 1.5mm (0.13" x 0.13" x 0.06"). Complete with clear polystyrene lid and clear polypropylene clip. Stackable.
Overall size is 55 x 51 x 10.7mm (2.16" x 2" x 0.42")
Same internal and external dimensions as standard GSB-100 storage box, but with anti-static tray made of black conductive polypropylene. Complete with anti-static cover and polypropylene clip. Stackable.
Two-part ESD-safe box for holding FIB grids, half grids and processed lift-outs. Grids are held in a specially shaped pocket that minimizes movement and protects the pins from contact with any surface. The insert lid ensures each grid is captured securely in the pocket. Box holds 100 grids. Pockets are locatable by labeled column (A-K) and row (1-10). Small cutouts at the edges of the pockets allow easy access for tweezers for loading and unloading.
