Multimolds and Flexible Mold
to Produce #00 and #3 Size Embedding Blocks

Flexible Mold to Produce #00 Size Blocks

Flexible white mold with cavities shaped to produce the traditional EM block, fitting size #00 (8mm diameter) specimen holders in ultramicrotomes. The mold is tough and thick, and is a composition polymer, not silicone rubber. Truncated pyramid tip.

Number of Cavities: 30
Numbering: A1-A5, B1-B5, C1-C5, D1-D5, E1-E5, F1-F5
Mold Size: 90 x 70 x 20mm thick

Micromoulds

A unitized EM embedding mold consisting of 10 capsules connected together by a membrane, which is numbered 1 to 10. Each Micromould has ten (10) 8mm ID capsules which produce #00 (8mm diameter) size pyramid shaped blocks with 1mm square flat tips. The Micromould is self supporting.

Easy Molds

Easy Molds, embedding molds for sample preparation for electron microscopy, are available in two sizes: #3 and #00 (5.6 and 8mm diameter). These polyethylene molds make embedding easy and the see-through tips facilitate rapid specimen orientation. Polymerized blocks can be removed by thumb pressure. Easy Molds come as a free-standing stack of 20 embedding compartments, allowing free circulation of air, giving even polymerization. For anaerobic embedding resins, the molds are self-stacking, allowing sealing from air. The used molds are convenient for storage of blocks after sectioning.
