Tisch SKU: SF18183

Tisch Scientific PTFE Syringe Filters, 3 µm, 13 mm, 100/Pk - SF18183

Tisch Scientific customer service specialists focus on laboratory products and can help source the right solution for specific applications. A syringe filter seats a membrane in a sealed housing that threads onto a standard luer fitting. Hydrophobic PTFE repels water while passing gases and solvents freely and handles concentrated acids and bases. Polypropylene construction maintains housing integrity through the filtration run while holding extractables low for sensitive analyses and maintains a low-dead-volume internal flow path. When sterile or particle-free preparation matters at the bench, the syringe filter delivers it with minimal added handling.

Technical Specifications

• Filters aggressive organic solvents without swelling or breakdown
• Absolute pore size rating gives consistent results across protocols
• Chemically inert against aggressive solvents, strong acids, and alkalis
• Low extractables keep the chromatographic background clean
• Hydrophobic membrane repels water for gas, vent, and solvent filtration

Housing Specifications

• Inert polyolefin wall contributes minimal sample adsorption to the filtrate
• Stable across the full aqueous pH range in routine sample work
• Rigid polypropylene body holds its shape under manual filtration pressure
• Optimized internal geometry minimizes backpressure in service

Handling the harsh solvents your methods demand calls for a filter that holds up to the chemistry, pass after pass. Solvent-stream filtration handles the solvents and reagents your methods rely on from organic mobile-phase prep through reagent clarification. Ask our friendly customer service team to confirm the pore size, membrane, and sterility options your filtration application calls for.
