Description

Nylon cleanroom wipers are designed for precision cleaning in controlled environments. They help remove particles while supporting contamination control in critical areas.

These wipes are made from 100% textured nylon. A specialized knitting process improves strength and reduces particle generation during use.

The material is highly durable and can handle more demanding cleaning tasks than standard wipes. It is ideal for surfaces that require aggressive but controlled cleaning.

Nylon wipers are also highly absorbent. They work well with cleaning solutions and solvents, making them suitable for ISO Class 5 cleanrooms and similar environments.

Common Uses

• Precision surface cleaning in ISO Class 5 and stricter cleanroom environments
• Semiconductor wafer fabrication equipment and surface wiping
• Hard surface cleaning where more aggressive wiping action is needed without introducing particles
• Optical component and lens cleaning requiring a durable, textured wiper
• Pharmaceutical and biotech equipment cleaning and surface preparation
• Medical device manufacturing and assembly area maintenance
• Applying and removing solvents on surfaces that require more scrubbing action than a lightweight polyester wiper can provide
• High-demand cleanroom maintenance tasks where wiper durability is a priority

 
Who This Is For

Nylon cleanroom wipers are the right choice for technicians and engineers who need the cleanliness specifications of an ISO Class 5 wiper combined with the durability and scrubbing capability that polyester wipers cannot always deliver. The textured nylon construction gives these wipers more mechanical cleaning action, making them well suited for surfaces with stubborn residues or tasks that require more than a light wipe. They are a good fit for semiconductor, pharmaceutical, and precision manufacturing environments where aggressive cleaning must still meet strict particle control standards. At 2,000 wipers per case, they are well suited for high-volume operations with demanding daily cleaning schedules.

FAQ

How do nylon wipers differ from polyester wipers at the same ISO class rating?
Both are rated for ISO Class 5 environments and are cleanroom laundered, but the key difference is durability and cleaning action. Nylon wipers are textured and stronger, making them better for tasks that require more scrubbing force or where surfaces have heavier residue. Polyester wipers are softer and lighter, making them a better fit for very delicate surfaces and components where minimal mechanical action is preferred.

What does the specialized knitting process do?
The knitting process used for these nylon wipers is designed to minimize abrasion and reduce particle generation during use. This is critical in ISO Class 5 environments where even small amounts of lint or fiber shedding can contaminate sensitive surfaces and processes.

Are these wipers cleanroom laundered?
Yes. These wipers are laundered in a controlled cleanroom environment before packaging to ensure they meet ISO Class 5 cleanliness standards at the point of use.

Are these wipers compatible with solvents and cleaning solutions?
Yes. The nylon material is highly absorbent and works well with a range of solvents and cleanroom-approved cleaning agents. Always verify chemical compatibility with your specific cleaning solution before use.

What size are these wipers?
These wipers are 9″ x 9″, a standard size well suited for most precision cleaning and equipment wiping tasks.

How many wipers come per case?
Each bag contains 100 wipers and each case contains 20 bags, for a total of 2,000 wipers per case. A minimum order of one case is required.

Are these wipers reusable?
These are designed for controlled single-use or limited-use applications in cleanroom environments. Reuse policies vary by facility protocol, but in most ISO Class 5 environments wipers are used once and discarded to prevent cross-contamination.

How do these compare to the Amplitude Zeta nonwoven wipers also available in this store?
The Amplitude Zeta is a general-purpose nonwoven wiper rated for ISO Class 6 to 7, best suited for high-absorbency tasks like solvent and acid spill pickup. These nylon wipers are rated for the more demanding ISO Class 5 standard and are designed for precision cleaning where both particle control and mechanical durability are critical. For the most sensitive cleanroom applications, the nylon wiper is the stronger specification choice.
