DESCRIPTION
Microtome.
Uniquely user-friendly, the robust Leica RM2235 offers numerous features that have never before been available in this class of microtome. It is designed for manual routine paraffin sectioning but can also be used for cutting harder materials. The Leica RM2235 is perfectly suited for those who expect precision sectioning and appreciate the feel and extra measure of control during manual sectioning. The one-piece, protective housing provides long product life and the compact base features a wrap-around, magnetized waste tray for space-saving convenience.

FEATURES
- Coarse-feed wheel: Coarse-feed wheel is 80 mm closer to the user compared to competitor products to support fatigue-free sectioning.
- Large 70mm vertical strokeThe large 70mm vertical stroke allows sectioning of super mega cassettes and also supports safer specimen changing due to the greater distance to the knife edge
- Adjustable handwheel system: Patented adjustable handwheel balance system protects the specimen because the object head does not drop into the knife when sectioning is stopped.
- Precision orientation systemThe optional 8° X/Y precision orientation system with calibrated controls helps to quickly orient already cut specimens (re-cuts). The system then rapidly returns the exact zero position, which is marked by two red indicators.
- Handwheel in any position: The handwheel brake on top of handwheel allows the handwheel to be locked in the upper position and the locking system below the handwheel allows it to be locked in any position.
