Pura Disc 13mm PTFE Syringe Filters, 1.0um, 100/Pk SKU: 6784-1310

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Syringe Filters, 1.0µm, 13mm - 6784-1310

In high-throughput analytical laboratories, the Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Whatman Puradisc, 13mm, Syringe Filter, 1.0µm, nonsterile 100/pk series establishes a standard for effective particulate removal and sample clarification. To ensure analytical precision, the unit is constructed with a high-grade Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane providing a consistent 1.0 cutoff that passes only your target analyte. Complementing the membrane's purity, the housing's thermal bonding eliminates the need for adhesives, removing a common source of extractable contamination. Ultimately, this rigorous attention to manufacturing quality ensures batch-to-batch reproducibility, allowing laboratories to standardize their workflows with total confidence.

Key Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Membrane Characteristics

• Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane with hydrophobic (requires pre-wetting) or hydrophilic (if treated) affinity
• Low Protein Binding characteristics
• Extreme chemical resistance to aggressive solvents, acids, and bases
• Hydrophobic version acts as an effective moisture barrier
• Verified 1.0 retention rating for clarification

Key Housing Characteristics

• High-purity Polypropylene encapsulation housing
• Luer-Lok/ Luer Slip for secure fitting
• 1.3cm² effective filtration area
• <25µl holdup volume to minimize sample loss

By selecting a filter that matches the exact chemical nature of your samples, you ensure that your workflow remains uninterrupted by membrane failures. Trust in the consistent performance of your filtration step to remove the variables that often lead to costly re-runs and ambiguous data. Elevate the quality of your analytical data today by standardizing on a filtration product built to meet the exact specifications of your applications.

• Organic Mobile Phases - Ideal for filtering 100% organic solvents in HPLC and GC workflows without any membrane degradation
• Aggressive Solvent Filtration - PTFE is chemically inert, making it the only choice for filtering strong acids and bases
• Aerosol Sampling - The hydrophobic nature of PTFE allows for gas venting and air monitoring applications in harsh environments
• Cryogenic Fluids - Remains functional and integral even at extreme temperatures, protecting sensitive equipment from damage
• Sample Clarification - Preventing premature clogging via rapid removal of high particulate loads to maintain high throughput in busy laboratories
• General Laboratory Filtration - Increases workflow efficiency by preventing premature clogging without sacrificing flow rates
