Nylon Syringe Filters - SPEC18133
Featuring hydrophilic nylon membrane technology with 1.0µm pore size for coarse particle removal and prefiltration applications. Pre-sterilized filters deliver consistent performance for protecting downstream analytical systems while processing aqueous and organic solvent samples. ABS housing construction paired with double Luer Lock connections delivers chemical resistance and secure attachment at operating pressures up to 72.5psi across diverse laboratory workflows.
Key Nylon Membrane Characteristics
- Naturally hydrophilic membrane eliminates pre-wetting steps for direct filtration of aqueous solutions and buffers
- 1.0µm pore size provides coarse particle removal and prefiltration to protect downstream 0.45µm or 0.22µm filters
- Broad chemical compatibility supports filtration of water, alcohols, DMSO, DMF, and common laboratory solvents
- Moderate protein binding characteristics maintain sample integrity while effectively retaining larger particulates
- Pre-sterilized packaging ensures contamination-free handling and maintains clean working conditions for analytical workflows
- Excellent chemical compatibility with aqueous non-acidic solutions and compatible organic solvents, including alcohols, DMSO, and DMF
Key Construction Characteristics
- ABS housing material provides chemical resistance and structural stability at temperatures up to 80°C
- Double Luer Lock design featuring female inlet and male outlet prevents accidental disconnection during filtration
- Low holdup volume (<100µl typical for 20mm format) minimizes sample loss for valuable or limited-volume samples
- 3.1cm² effective filtration area delivers adequate flow rates for processing particle-laden samples efficiently
SPEC18133 filters maximize your laboratory efficiency through reliable prefiltration that extends the lifespan of expensive downstream filters. Pre-sterilized packaging saves your team preparation time while the 7.25psi bubble point confirms consistent pore structure. Your workflow benefits from the 116psi burst pressure, providing a substantial safety margin for pressurized filtration operations.
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.
