Surge Scientific · Model LH0301002 · Precipette™ Single-Channel Adjustable Volume Pipette
Precipette™ 0.5 – 10 µL Pipette (LH0301002)
Workhorse Low Volume · 0.01 µL Increment · Orange Color · ±1% / ±0.8%
The most-used pipette range in molecular biology, at $36 · ISO 8655 Calibrated · Individual Test Certificate · Autoclavable Lower Section · Ergonomic Low-Plunger-Force Design · Left-Hander Friendly · 4-Position Volume Display · Color-Coded Tops · High-Elastic Universal Tip Cone · Tip Ejector
The LH0301002 is the 0.5–10 µL Precipette — the most-pulled-from-the-stand pipette in any molecular biology lab, at the budget-friendly $36 price point. PCR primer addition, qPCR template loading, restriction enzyme aliquoting, antibody dilutions — the 0.5–10 µL range is where most pipetting actually happens. ISO 8655 calibrated to ±1% systematic error and ±0.8% random error at 1 µL test volume — outstanding sub-1% precision spec. 0.01 µL increment on the 4-position display. Orange color top. Autoclavable lower section for proper disinfection.
Why "Affordable, Adjustable, Autoclavable, Accurate" Defines the Precipette Story
Most labs face the same tension when ordering pipettes: the premium-tier autoclavable pipettes from major brands cost $200–$400 each, putting a full 9-piece volume set at $1,800–$3,600. Cheap pipettes at $15–$25 either skip ISO 8655 calibration entirely, ship without test certificates, or fail accuracy specs by the third autoclave cycle. Neither option is right for the teaching lab equipping 12 student benches, the core facility supplying multiple research groups, or the budget-conscious startup outfitting a new bench.
The Precipette is engineered around the "4 A's": Affordable ($36 each — every bench gets a full 9-piece set under $400), Adjustable (wide volume range with 4-position display), Autoclavable lower section (proper disinfection between sample sets), and Accurate (ISO 8655 calibrated with individual factory test certificate). Add ergonomic low-plunger-force design, left-hander friendly geometry, high-elastic universal tip cone (fits most major-manufacturer tips), and tip ejector for fast tip changes, and the Precipette delivers professional-grade performance at the budget that real-world labs actually have. Durable high-tech synthetic material resists high temperature, corrosion, and weather — engineered for years of daily use.
Volume 0.5 – 10 µL
±0.8% random error at 1 µL — sub-1% precision in the most-used pipette range, at $36. The classic Orange P10 workhorse for PCR, qPCR, restriction digests. Orange color top for instant pipette-stand identification.
ISO 8655 + Individual Cert
±1.00% systematic error and ±0.80% random error per ISO 8655 specification. Individual factory test certificate ships with every Precipette.
Autoclavable Lower Section
The lower section autoclaves for proper disinfection between sample sets. Tool-free disassembly. High-tech synthetic material resists high temperature, corrosion, and weather.
Ergonomic + Left-Hander Friendly
Low plunger pressure minimizes repetitive strain injuries. Left-hander friendly design. 4-position volume display with 0.002 µL display accuracy. High-elastic tip cone + tip ejector for fast tip changes.
"Affordable. Adjustable. Autoclavable. Accurate. The 0.5 – 10 µL Precipette LH0301002 — ISO 8655 calibrated, individual test certificate, every bench can have a full 9-piece set."

Ideal Applications
PCR & qPCR Workflows
Standard PCR primer dispensing, qPCR template addition, restriction digest enzyme aliquoting — the bread-and-butter molecular biology range where 1 µL, 2 µL, and 5 µL transfers happen 100 times a day.
Cell Biology & Microbiology
Antibody dilutions, transfection reagent dispensing, bacterial culture inoculum delivery, and ELISA standards — the routine volumes that fill most cell biology and microbiology workflows.
Teaching Labs & Core Facilities
Equipping every bench with a calibrated 0.5–10 µL pipette without breaking the budget — undergraduate teaching, training programs, and shared core facilities.
What's in the Box
The Precipette LH0301002 ships ready for use with the verification documentation that ISO 8655 requires.
