STX1034 Sterile AlphaSat 4" x 4" Polyester Cleanroom Wiper Pre-Wet 70% IPA

STX1034 Sterile AlphaSat is a low-linting (no wiper is truly ‘zero-lint’ in every process condition), high-absorbency polyester knit wiper used for critical cleaning, spill control, and controlled solvent application in controlled environments. It is constructed from 100% continuous-filament polyester in a double-knit, no-run interlock pattern for durability on equipment, fixtures, and rougher surfaces. Each package is gamma irradiated to 10-6 Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) and supplied in a pre-wetted 70% IPA format to improve operator-to-operator repeatability during routine wipe-down steps.

Sterile-program note: STX1034 is widely selected when teams need sterile, small-format 70% IPA wiping with documentation expectations (lot-specific information, certificates, and expiration dating) for critical zones and controlled workflows.

About the Manufacturer: 

Texwipe (an ITW company) differentiates itself in cleanroom wiping by treating the wiper as an engineered product, not a commodity consumable. Its manufacturing approach starts with fabric and yarn selection (often continuous-filament polyester for lower shedding), then controls edge construction (cut-edge, sealed-edge, and sealed-border options), controlled cleaning/laundering, and packaging aligned to cleanroom application tiers.

 

For sterile, pre-wetted programs, Texwipe also emphasizes sterility assurance controls and documentation discipline, including gamma irradiation, lot traceability, and packaging practices intended to preserve wetness and reduce handling-driven variability at point of use. SOSCleanroom (SOS) supports that manufacturing discipline with a close working relationship with Texwipe focused on continuity of supply, clean documentation handoff (certs, lot traceability), and practical application support—so customers can standardize wiping materials with predictable performance while maintaining procurement reliability and audit readiness.

STX1034 Features:
  • Gamma irradiated to 10-6 Sterility Assurance Level (SAL), according to AAMI guidelines
  • Lot-specific information on each shipment simplifies record keeping
  • Certificate of Processing confirming radiation dosage
  • Certification of Compliance
  • Expiration date marked on each package
  • 100% polyester fiber — continuous-filament, double-knit
  • Cleanroom laundered and packaged
  • Solvent-safe packaging
  • Lot-to-lot traceability
STX1034 Benefits:
  • Low-linting performance: Designed to help reduce particle and fiber contribution during wipe-downs (process-dependent)
  • Sterility assurance + documentation: Supports workflows that require sterile processing expectations, lot traceability, and package-level expiration dating
  • Durability on surfaces: No-run interlock knit helps resist snagging and abrasion on rougher equipment and fixtures
  • Absorbency for wet steps: Effective for spill pickup and controlled application/removal of solvents and cleaning agents
  • Chemical resistance: Polyester knit construction is commonly used with IPA and many other cleanroom-compatible solvents/cleaners (verify compatibility to your chemistry and SOP)
Common Applications:
  • General wiping of benches, carts, tools, equipment exteriors, and fixtures
  • Spill control and pickup of process fluids
  • Cleaning and polishing stainless steel
  • Applying and removing disinfectants, cleaners, and process solutions
  • Protective covering for parts and product during staging, transfer, or temporary storage
  • Small-area sterile wiping (tight wipe points, touchpoints, and spot cleaning where a 4" x 4" format reduces incidental contact)
Best-Practice Use:
  • Open-and-use discipline: Open the bag only when ready to wipe; reclose promptly to reduce evaporation and maintain consistent wetness.
  • Fold for control: Fold to create multiple clean faces; rotate faces instead of re-wiping with a loaded surface.
  • Wipe pattern: Use straight-line strokes (top-to-bottom or left-to-right) to avoid re-depositing contamination.
  • Wet vs. drip: Pre-wetted does not mean dripping—maintain control and avoid over-wetting seams, joints, and electrical interfaces.
  • Change-out triggers: Replace the wiper when the face becomes visibly soiled, tacky, or leaves streaks/residue.
Selection Notes (STX1034 vs. Other Options)
  • Sterile vs. non-sterile (TX1034): Choose STX1034 when sterile processing and sterile documentation are required by the workflow; choose TX1034 when sterile processing is not required.
  • Format fit (4" x 4"): Use STX1034 for glove/fingertip wiping, small tools, tight fixtures, and spot cleaning; step up to 6" x 6" or 9" x 9" when coverage per wipe matters.
  • Ground shipping requirement: Because this is a pre-wetted, regulated shipment (ORM-D), plan for UPS Ground and U.S.-only destination restrictions in your replenishment cadence.

ISO 14644 Operations Control Texwipe AlphaSat® (Sterile, Pre-Wetted) Polyester / 70% IPA Saturated Sterile Disinfection Prep & Wipe-Down 4" x 4" Lot Traceability
Texwipe STX1034 Sterile AlphaSat® 4" x 4" Polyester Cleanroom Wiper (Pre-Wetted 70% IPA) — controlled wetness for small-surface sterile wipe-downs and tight-area cleaning

Texwipe STX1034 Sterile AlphaSat® is a sterile, 4" x 4" polyester cleanroom wiper supplied pre-wetted with 70% IPA to support standardized cleaning methods where wetness control and repeatability are priorities. The compact format is commonly selected when the cleaning task is localized—small fixtures, touch points, ports, and constrained areas—where larger wipes can reduce boundary control and increase the chance of re-contacting cleaned zones. Pre-wetting reduces variability introduced by field wetting (over-application, inconsistent saturation, and solvent handling drift), helping facilities standardize stroke count and wipe coverage per step. As with all pre-wetted wipes, outcomes depend on disciplined fold/face control, unidirectional strokes, and prompt change-out when the wipe becomes loaded. Final suitability should be confirmed against current manufacturer documentation and your internal requirements for residues, compatibility, and surface finish sensitivity.

Operations takeaway: STX1034 supports ISO-aligned operations control by fixing wetness at the point of use and enabling repeatable “small-area” cleaning steps. Define the wipe boundary (area size), stroke count, and discard triggers in the SOP to reduce film, streaking, and re-deposition risk.

ISO-first context: where wipers fit in cleanroom operations control

ISO 14644-5:2025 frames cleanroom performance around a documented Operations Control Programme (OCP) that governs personnel practices, material transfer, cleaning, maintenance, and monitoring. Wipers belong in that system because the wipe itself, the chemistry, and the technique directly affect residues, particles, and recontamination risk. If you clean parts, fixtures, tools, or work surfaces inside an ISO-class controlled environment, the method should be written, trained, and repeatable.

Control point: Most “wiper failures” are technique failures—over-wetting, re-wiping with a loaded face, backtracking into clean areas, or using a wiper beyond its change-out point.

Documentation rule: For controlled/validated programs, always base acceptance criteria on current manufacturer documentation and lot records (not web summaries).

What this wiper is designed to do (typical use cases)
  • Standardized sterile wipe-downs of small areas where controlled wetness is needed without field wetting.
  • Localized cleaning of touch points, ports, fixtures, and small equipment exteriors in constrained spaces.
  • Targeted IPA wipe-down steps where the SOP defines stroke count and surface boundary per wipe.
  • Support cleaning prior to a defined disinfection step when IPA is the approved chemistry (per SOP).
  • Interventions where a compact wipe reduces accidental contact with adjacent cleaned areas.

Method note: Pre-wetted wipes control saturation, but they do not eliminate technique risk. Keep strokes unidirectional, avoid backtracking, and discard promptly once the wipe face becomes loaded. For confined geometries, define the swab method separately (one swab, one area; no re-dipping).

Best-practice use (reduce residues, particles, and rework)
  1. Control introduction: bring wipes into the cleanroom per your OCP rules (outer packaging removal, staging, and storage).
  2. Use clean-to-less-clean flow: wipe from the cleanest zone to the dirtiest zone; do not backtrack.
  3. Fold for control: fold to create multiple clean faces; use one face per pass, then refold.
  4. Damp-film technique: use the pre-wetted wipe as supplied; do not “top off” unless your SOP allows it.
  5. Straight-line strokes: use consistent pressure and unidirectional strokes; avoid circular scrubbing.
  6. Change-out triggers: discard when loaded, smeary, tacky, or when surface-quality requirements are at risk.

Method standardization tip: If outcomes differ by operator, lock four variables in the SOP: wetness target (fixed here), stroke count, fold pattern, and change-out point.

Misuse controls & when not to use
  • If sterility is required: do not substitute a non-sterile wipe for sterile workflows.
  • If ultra-low residues/ions are gating: confirm requirements against current manufacturer documentation and your internal limits.
  • If the surface is easily scratched: validate on delicate finishes; avoid excessive pressure.
  • If chemistry is aggressive: verify compatibility and safety for IPA use; do not assume universal compatibility.
Recommended cleanroom glove pairing (ISO-aligned)

For ISO-controlled wiping applications, pair this cleanroom wipe with a cleanroom-processed, low-particle nitrile glove to reduce contamination transfer during handling and routine wipe-downs.

Glove discipline: Change gloves when contaminated, solvent-wet, torn, or after contacting non-controlled surfaces. Treat gloves as part of the wipe system.

Recommended sterile swab pairing (detail cleaning & confined geometries)

For ports, crevices, and recessed features where a wiper cannot maintain contact control, use a sterile cleanroom swab to keep the cleaning method consistent and to reduce accidental contact with critical surfaces.

Swab discipline: Use a strict “one swab, one area” approach for sterile workflows. Do not re-dip; discard immediately if the tip is overloaded or if the swab contacts non-sterile surfaces.
