Remanufactured Microm HM 325 Manual Microtome | Medical Equipment Source
The remanufactured Microm HM 325 Manual Microtome is a premier manual rotary microtome engineered by Microm, the world's leading microtome manufacturer, for precise, stable sectioning of even the most difficult-to-cut paraffin specimens. A universal multi-purpose instrument, the Microm HM 325 microtome serves both paraffin sectioning and manual hard sectioning in biology, medicine, research, and industry.
Built around a mechanical precision micrometer feed and an especially smooth-running handwheel, the Microm HM 325 manual microtome delivers outstanding section quality with non-tiring ergonomic operation. Removable setting knobs operate from either side, specimen retraction protects the sample and blade, and a resettable electronic section counter supports daily lab workflow. Each remanufactured unit pairs proven Microm reliability with significant cost savings for budget-conscious laboratories.
