A device for the support and protection (1) of a tubular element (2) of very small diameter, particularly of the type of a micropipette, comprising a portion of constant nominal diameter and a drawn out end (3) . The device is a monobloc member, of a material having elasticity, such as a resilient plastic, comprising an elongated body (4) whose dimension in its longitudinal direction is at least equal to the length of the tubular element (2) to be supported and whose transverse cross section has the shape of an inverted U with a base (5) prolonged by two legs (6, 7) , the base f the U comprising on its flat external surface, at least two recesses (9, 10) opening outwardly, disposed in prolongation of each other and being separated by a distance less than the length of the tubular element, so as to receive this latter and to retain it in two spaced regions. Each of these recesses is delimited by two parallel edges (11, 2) extending from the base of the U.
