Nylon Syringe Filters, 5.0um, 13mm, Luer-Lok/Luer Slip, Sterile, 100/Pk SKU: SF18215

Nylon Syringe Filters - SF18215

Featuring naturally hydrophilic nylon membrane technology with integrated prefilter for efficient coarse filtration and prefiltration applications. Pre-sterilized filters deliver exceptional flow rates through 5.0µm pores, optimizing sample preparation for high-throughput analytical workflows. Compact polypropylene construction ensures chemical resistance while maintaining structural integrity across diverse laboratory procedures.

Key Nylon Membrane Characteristics

• Naturally hydrophilic membrane allows immediate filtration of aqueous samples without pre-wetting
• Coarse 5.0µm pore size effectively removes larger particulates while maintaining rapid flow rates
• Low bubble point of 4.5psi enables gentle filtration of shear-sensitive biological materials
• Excellent chemical compatibility with aqueous non-acidic solutions and compatible organic solvents
• Uniform 90-120µm membrane thickness provides consistent flow characteristics and particle retention

Key Construction Characteristics

• Integrated PP prefilter extends membrane life by capturing extra-large particles before primary filtration
• Ultra-low holdup volume of 20µl minimizes sample loss in precious small-volume applications
• Dual Luer-Lok inlet and Luer slip outlet connections ensure secure attachment to standard syringes
• Withstands operating pressures up to 87psi for reliable performance with viscous samples

SF18215 syringe filters provide the rapid prefiltration performance your laboratory requires for efficient sample processing. Pre-sterilized convenience combined with an impressive 80ml/minute flow rate ensures your team can clarify samples quickly while preserving downstream filter integrity. Small 13mm configuration with minimal holdup volume maximizes your recovery of limited samples while delivering the coarse filtration essential for protecting analytical equipment.
