A stackable pipette tip tray is described. The pipette tip tray includes a deck having first and second opposing longitudinal side edges. A plurality of shaft apertures is arranged into a plurality of longitudinal rows on the deck. Each of the shaft apertures has a first size or shape configured to receive a shaft of a pipette tip. The deck also includes a plurality of tip apertures that is also arranged into a plurality of longitudinal rows such that at least one of the longitudinal rows of tip apertures is located between an adjacent pair of longitudinal rows of shaft apertures. Each of the plurality of tip apertures has a second size or shape, different from the first size or shape, and is configured to receive a distal tip end of a pipette tip when one tray of pipette tips is stacked above another tray of pipette tips. The plurality of longitudinal rows of shaft apertures is further arranged such that an outer one of the plurality of longitudinal row of shaft apertures adjacent the first side edge of the deck is positioned closer to the first side edge than an outer one of the plurality of longitudinal row of shaft apertures adjacent the second side edge of the deck is positioned relative to the second side edge. |
