Texwipe TX740E Medium CleanFoam® ESD Swab with Long Handle

Texwipe TX740E is an ESD-safe, medium CleanFoam® cleanroom swab with a long handle, designed for precision cleaning and controlled solution application/removal in recessed or hard-to-reach features where static control is a selection gate. Texwipe’s ESD-Safe Swab Series features a Stat-Rite® handle (a patented inherently dissipative polymer) to provide clean ESD protection without contributing particulate contaminants to the process or environment. Complete thermal-bond construction eliminates the risk of adhesive contamination, and the swabs are cleanroom processed and packaged in an anti-static bag for controlled-environment handling.

Long-handle note: TX740E is selected when access and reach matter—helping keep gloves and sleeves farther from the work zone while maintaining controlled contact and ESD discipline.

Texwipe TX740E: what this medium CleanFoam® ESD long-handle swab is designed to solve

Texwipe TX740E is a medium CleanFoam® ESD-safe cleanroom swab with a long handle, used for precision cleaning and controlled solution application/removal in recessed or hard-to-reach features where static control is a selection gate. Teams choose TX740E when the process risk is not simply "cleaning," but how cleaning is performed—controlling wetness, avoiding backtracking, and preventing redeposit that creates rework.

Per the ESD series documentation and product listing, Texwipe's ESD-Safe Swab Series features a Stat-Rite® handle (a patented inherently dissipative polymer) to provide clean ESD protection without contributing particulate contaminants to the process or environment. The complete thermal bond construction eliminates the risk of adhesive contamination, and the swab is cleanroom processed and packaged in an anti-static bag.

Operations takeaway: TX740E is a method-control tool. The long handle helps reduce incidental contact risk (gloves/sleeves near the work zone), but repeatability still depends on wetness target, directional strokes, and change-out triggers.
