Whatman GD/X PTFE Syringe Filters, 0.2 µm, 13 mm, 150/Pk - 6875-1302
Whatman's expertise in cellulose, glass fiber, and polymeric membrane production guides material selection and quality control. Sample preparation for chromatography often ends with a syringe filter on the path to the vial. Chemically inert PTFE resists attack from the harshest process chemistries while filtering aggressive organic solvents without breakdown and blocks aqueous ingress in vent applications. The polypropylene housing resists aqueous acids, bases, and alcohols while holding extractables low for sensitive analyses and maintains a low-dead-volume internal flow path. For routine sample preparation across many methods, the syringe filter folds clarification into one disposable step.
Technical Specifications

- Optimized internal geometry minimizes backpressure in service
Filtering aggressive solvents and reagents through a filter that holds up to the chemistry keeps your sample prep reliable. Reliable solvent prefiltration clears particulates from your organic samples so your downstream method starts with a clean sample. Ask our friendly customer service team to confirm the pore size, membrane, and sterility options your filtration application calls for.
