Textra® Tube Sealed Border Dry Wipers Advanced Tube-Knit Construction with Sealed Edges for Ultra-Low Lint and High Durability Textra® tube sealed border dry wipers combine continuous filament tube-knit construction with sealed edge technology to deliver exceptional cleanliness, durability, and particle control. Designed for critical cleanroom environments, these wipes eliminate exposed edges and minimize fiber release. ▼ EXPAND TECHNICAL REFERENCE
Tube-Knit Engineering for Edge-Free Contamination Control
Textra® tube sealed border wipers are manufactured using a continuous tube-knit process, eliminating two of the four cut edges found in traditional wipes. This significantly reduces fiber exposure and minimizes particle generation at the most common contamination points.
The remaining edges are sealed using advanced technologies—such as laser or thermal sealing—to further stabilize the structure and prevent fraying. The result is a highly engineered wipe that delivers superior cleanliness and durability in demanding environments.
This combination of tube-knit construction and sealed edges makes Textra® wipers ideal for high-performance cleanroom applications requiring ultra-low lint, low extractables, and consistent process reliability.
