Metro® LAB SOLUTIONS

Metro’s line of stainless laboratory solutions address a wide
range of laboratory requirements while providing corrosion
proof performance, ensuring long life and maximum value for
your investment. Metro’s innovative product
designs are extremely versatile and allow you to reconfi gure,
add-on, or break-down product as your needs change over
time. Laboratory solutions are designed to fi t any budget
by permitting the user to select from a wide range of caster
solutions, based on budget and/or application requirements.
Metro’s Stainless Laboratory Solutions include:

• Stainless Worktables designed specifi cally for
Lab environments.

• All-stainless solid shelves designed for cart wash and
autoclave applications.

• All-stainless lab carts featuring corrosion-proof
performance.

• All-stainless mouse cage racks designed specifi cally for
Animal Research environments.

• High temperature casters designed for cart wash and
autoclave applications.

• Autoclave cart covers.

• Strong, Durable Construction: Built primarily from Type
304 stainless, Metro’s Laboratory Solutions provide
long-life performance and excellent corrosion resistance.
Innovative product designs ensure unit rigidity and
optimum load bearing performance.

• Easy to Assemble: Units are shipped knocked down
and assemble in minutes. Solid shelves utilize a tapered
sleeve which provides a positive lock for shelves when
pushed down. Table construction also utilizes tapered
sleeve approach, as well as innovative double-sided tape
to affi x various top materials.

• Versatile: Metro Lab Solutions can change as quickly
as your needs change. By using various accessories,
including multiple caster options, many different product
confi gurations become possible.

• Laboratory Considerations: Product designs feature
smooth surfaces that are easy to wipe down. A number
of the cart solutions and accessories are designed
to be cart-washed or autoclaved to ensure optimum
cleanliness. Product footprints are designed to be
compact to accommodate lab space constraints and to
capitalize on technological miniaturization trends towards
smaller equipment and instruments.

AUTOCLAVE APPLICATION GUIDELINES

When stainless solid shelving, as part of a mobile shelving unit, is used in an autoclave, the following Metro product guidelines are recommended to
ensure optimal product performance and longevity:
Stainless, swedged posts with aluminum post caps must be utilized [part numbers 33/54/63UPS-SW]
Aluminum split sleeves [part number 9986S] with stainless rings should be used to mount solid stainless shelves.
Select either hi-temp phenolic casters or hi-temp nylon casters for application. These casters are designed specifi cally for autoclave environments.
Bumpers should not be used as they are not designed to withstand autoclave temperature ranges
