Abstract
A centrifuge rotor is provided having a rotor core that defines a rotational axis of the rotor. A plurality of bucket supports is arranged about the axis of rotation. The rotor includes first and second straps that respectively wrap around two diametrically-opposed ones of the bucket supports for restricting outward movement of the two bucket supports relative to the rotor core. The first and second straps intersect one another at a location through the axis of rotation of the rotor.
