Lint-free fiber optic presaturated wipes provide a convenient way

Lint-free fiber optic presaturated wipes provide a convenient way to clean optical connector end faces. They are also great for general cleaning of fiber optic cables and splices, electronic components, touch keypads, keyboards, instrument housings and magnetic tape heads.

The traditional method of cleaning optical connectors involves a wet process with alcohol (mostly isopropyl alcohol), lens paper or cloth. This yields suboptimal results and may leave a charged electrical field on the connector end face that will attract contamination.

FiberWipesTM

The FiberWipesTM lint-free fiber optic presaturated wipe is the ideal tool for technicians working on fiber optic and photonics applications. This patented wipe is designed to clean any surface, connector or splice quickly and conveniently, while reducing costs. It features a high modulus optical grade fabric that is engineered for wet-dry cleaning and does not lint like paper wipes. It also comes in a convenient mini-tub so you can take it with you wherever you need to go. Wipes are pre-moistened with a special formula that safely removes dust, dirt, oxides and most contaminants from precision equipment and surfaces. They can be used for stripping fibers prior to fusion splicing, cleaning connector end-faces after polishing and much more. They are made with strong hydro-entangled polyester fabric that will not tear easily, which is important for technicians who often have a lot of work to do in one short time.

Cleanroom Wipes

Cleanroom wipes are specially engineered low-lint cloths used to clean surfaces in controlled environments where low levels of pollutants like dust, airborne microbes, and chemical vapors are present. They meet ISO standards for use in hospitals and laboratories.

They are available in different substrates and sizes. Some of them are pre-wetted to increase absorbency. Others are sterile.

Choosing the right wipes is important to keep your cleanroom safe, and ensure that employees follow proper cleaning procedures. This includes selecting a material that has been tested for mechanical cleaning capability and chemical compatibility, as well as softness.

Generally, the most effective cleanroom wipes will have lower levels of lint to minimize contaminants, and better absorbency to pick up liquid spills. In addition, they should be designed to be chemical resistance and abrasion resistant.

FG Clean Wipes

FG Clean Wipes are pre-saturated wipers designed for critical process cleaning in environments where low particle and fiber generation is important. They are available in a variety of fabrics, concentrations, and packing options that streamline processes across industries and applications.

These lint-free fiber optic presaturated wipes are made from an economical, absorbent nonwoven material that features a 45% polyester/45% cellulose blend. The 45% polyester provides the high liquid holding capacity needed for general liquid removal, while the 55% cellulose adds abrasion resistance and softness to the wipe.

This wipe is ideal for ISO 5-8 controlled environments. It is highly absorbent with water and solvents, and is low linting and static free.

These lint-free fiber optic preseturated wipes are a great choice for wiping optical parts, electrodes, cuvettes, microscopes and lenses. They are manufactured from durable fabric that resists fiber release and abrasion under rigorous use. They can be premoistened or dry and come in soft-pack packages that make them easier to take on the go.
