Nylon Syringe Filters - SPEC18132
Featuring hydrophilic nylon membrane technology with a 0.45µm pore size, SPEC18132 is engineered for efficient clarification and particle removal in laboratory filtration. Pre-sterilized filters provide a consistent solution for processing sensitive analytical samples requiring contamination-free clarification. The rigid ABS housing, equipped with threaded double Luer Lock connections, ensures secure, leak-free operation at pressures up to 72.5psi while processing aqueous solutions and compatible solvent mixtures.
Key Nylon Membrane Characteristics
- Naturally hydrophilic membrane requires no pre-wetting for immediate filtration of aqueous solutions and buffers
- 0.45µm pore size provides effective clarification and particle removal without claiming sterile filtration capability
- Broad chemical compatibility enables filtration of water, alcohols, DMSO, and compatible laboratory solvents
- Temperature stability to 80°C enables elevated temperature filtration and accommodates warm solvent processing
- Pre-sterilized packaging ensures contamination-free handling for sensitive analytical and research applications
Key Construction Characteristics
- ABS housing material provides structural stability and chemical resistance to alcohols and aqueous solutions
- Threaded Double Luer Lock configuration prevents disconnection during pressurized filtration workflows
- Minimal holdup volume (<100µl typical for 20mm format) maximizes recovery of valuable or limited samples
- 3.1cm² effective filtration area optimizes flow rates for efficient processing of samples up to 60ml
SPEC18132 filters enhance your laboratory productivity through reliable clarification performance, backed by a 17.4psi bubble point. Pre-sterilized packaging saves your team preparation time while the 116psi burst pressure provides substantial safety margin for confident operation. Your analytical workflows benefit from the proven 20mm format, delivering an optimal balance between processing speed and sample recovery.
Please note: ABS housings are not recommended for aggressive solvents like Acetonitrile or Acetone. For more information about chemical and material compatibility, please review our Chemical Compatibility Chart.
