Nylon Syringe Filters - SF18265
Featuring naturally hydrophilic nylon membrane technology with an integrated prefilter for effective coarse filtration and rapid sample processing. Sterile filters deliver exceptional flow rates through 3.0µm pores, optimizing clarification of viscous samples and particulate-laden solutions. Compact polypropylene construction ensures chemical resistance while maintaining dimensional stability throughout demanding filtration procedures.
Key Nylon Membrane Characteristics
- Naturally hydrophilic membrane enables immediate aqueous sample filtration without pre-wetting requirements
- Coarse 3.0µm pore size removes larger particulates while preserving dissolved components
- Low bubble point of 5.5psi allows gentle processing of temperature-sensitive biological materials
- Excellent chemical tolerance except for concentrated acids, aggressive organics, and protein solutions
- Uniform 90-120µm membrane thickness delivers consistent retention and stable flow characteristics
Key Construction Characteristics
- Integrated PP prefilter captures extra-large particles, significantly extending primary membrane life
- Ultra-low holdup volume of 20µl minimizes sample loss in precious small-volume applications
- Dual Luer-Lok inlet and Luer slip outlet connections provide secure attachment to standard syringes
- Withstands operating pressures up to 87psi for reliable performance with challenging samples
SF18265 syringe filters deliver the high-flow coarse filtration performance your laboratory demands for challenging sample matrices. Pre-sterilized format combined with an exceptional 60ml/minute flow rate ensures your team processes difficult samples efficiently while protecting downstream equipment. Small 13mm configuration with integrated prefilter provides your workflows with rapid clarification capability while minimizing sample loss in limited-volume applications.
