Also bought 1.5 mL pointed tubes. Small, low mass, handle high RPMs. They don't leak or pop open. Big bag that will last me a long time.

Arrived dirty and unusable
All tubes were heavily dusty inside. Not acceptable for lab work; I had to clean each one. Manufacturer should inspect shipments. I need compensation—these are unusable for my job.
