TX1060 Vectra® Honeycomb® 10 9" x 9" Polyester Cleanroom Wiper (Sealed Border)

TX1060 Vectra® Honeycomb® 10 is a low-linting (no wiper is truly ‘zero-lint’ in every process condition), sealed-border, double-knit, 100% continuous-filament polyester wiper engineered for critical cleaning where grit and residue removal are absolute requirements. All four edges are thermally sealed to help prevent particle and fiber release, and the Honeycomb 10 surface texture is designed to encapsulate grit so it can be lifted and removed during the cleaning process—with strong absorbency plus good particle and fiber control for high-sensitivity wipe steps.

Process-control note: TX1060 is commonly specified for wafer-fab and precision tool cleaning where teams want sealed-border edge integrity plus a textured wipe face that can capture grit without smearing it across a critical surface.

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 fiber and fabric selection (continuous-filament polyester for lower shedding), then controls knit construction, edge design (including sealed-border platforms), controlled cleaning/laundering, and packaging aligned to cleanroom application tiers.

 

For Vectra® Honeycomb® 10, Texwipe positions the proprietary Vectra® Process as a consistency lever for ultra-low contamination levels, paired with engineered surface texture intended to encapsulate grit so it can be removed rather than dragged across critical surfaces. SOSCleanroom (SOS) supports that manufacturing discipline with a close working relationship 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.

TX1060 Features:
  • 100% synthetic fiber (continuous-filament, double-knit polyester)
  • Thermally sealed border
  • Unique surface differential, two distinctly different engineered surfaces
  • Laundered and packaged at ITW Texwipe’s Cleanroom Products Manufacturing Center
  • Solvent-safe Bag-Within-A-Bag® cleanroom packaging
  • Vectra® Process for the cleanest, most consistent wipers
TX1060 Benefits:
  • Grit and residue capture: Unique surface construction facilitates grit and residue capture and subsequent removal during wipe-downs
  • Contamination control: Designed for ultra-low levels of particles, ions, and extractables (process-dependent; validate to your acceptance criteria)
  • Durability under pressure: Resists abrasion under rigorous use
  • Edge-release control: Sealed-border design helps minimize fiber and particle release during pressure wiping
  • Lot-to-lot traceability: Supports investigations, qualification, and audit readiness
Common Applications:
  • Engineered for use in ISO Class 3–4 cleanroom environments where particle and residue removal are absolute requirements
  • Particle removal on uneven as well as smooth surfaces
  • Ideal for removing broken wafer fragments or process residues
  • Maintenance wipe-downs on precision equipment where grit control and sealed-border integrity matter
Best-Practice Use:
  • Fold for control: Fold into quarters 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.
  • Texture management: Use the engineered surface intentionally—start with light pressure to lift grit, then increase pressure only if your surface finish and SOP allow it.
  • Wet vs. dry: For solvent wipe-downs, dampen—do not over-saturate—so you maintain control and reduce streaking or pooling.
  • Change-out triggers: Replace the wiper when the face becomes visibly loaded, begins smearing, or leaves residue/streaks.
Selection Notes (TX1060 vs. Other Options)
  • TX1060 vs. TX1029 (Vectra Quantum100): Choose TX1060 when grit encapsulation and residue pickup are primary drivers; choose Quantum100 when your process prioritizes ultra-clean polyester wiping without the Honeycomb textured surface.
  • TX1060 vs. TX1080 (Vectra QuanTex): QuanTex is often selected as an ultra-clean sealed-border polyester for general critical wiping; Honeycomb 10 is typically selected when abrasive residue/grit removal is a recurring problem to solve.
  • TX1060 vs. TX1010 (Vectra Alpha10): Alpha10 is commonly used for high-cleanliness wipe-downs; Honeycomb 10 is typically chosen when the surface texture advantage for grit capture is important.

Texwipe TX1060 Vectra® Honeycomb® 10 (9" × 9") — Sealed-Border Polyester Wiper Built for Grit Encapsulation and Critical Surface Cleaning

Texwipe TX1060 Vectra Honeycomb 10 9 x 9 Polyester Cleanroom Wiper
Representative product image (TX1060).
1) Why TX1060 exists: when grit, fragments, and residues drive risk
In critical cleaning, the problem is often not “dust” — it is grit, small fragments, and stubborn residues that can scratch optics, damage sensitive tooling, or become yield-killers in microelectronics and advanced manufacturing. TX1060 Vectra® Honeycomb® 10 is engineered for that reality: a sealed-border, double-knit polyester wiper with an intentionally textured face that can help capture particulate during wipe-down rather than pushing it across a surface.
If your process includes high-sensitivity wipe steps (tooling, chambers, fixtures, precision benches, optics handling zones), the “right” wiper is the one that supports particle control, edge integrity, and consistent technique without introducing fibers, loose edges, or uncontrolled residues.

2) What it’s for
TX1060 is commonly selected when teams want sealed-border polyester cleanliness plus a surface that can assist with girt removal and encapsulation during cleaning. Typical use-cases include:
  • Semiconductor and advanced manufacturing tool wipe-down (process equipment, enclosures, fixtures)
  • Optics and precision assembly support cleaning where scratches and residues are unacceptable
  • General cleanroom surface maintenance across ISO Class 3–8 programs
  • Applications needing a two-sided wiper (scrub/capture side + smooth finishing side)

3) Why customers choose it
  • Dual-surface design: honeycomb pockets on one face help capture and retain particles/debris; the opposite face is smooth for finishing passes.
  • Sealed borders (all four edges): thermal sealing helps reduce edge-related particle/fiber release and supports cleanroom discipline.
  • Continuous-filament polyester knit: engineered for low-linting wipe steps (note: no wiper is truly “lint-free” in every process condition).
  • Scrub + absorbency balance: knit construction supports cleaning efficacy while maintaining contamination control expectations for critical environments.
  • Standardization-friendly: defined bag/case configurations and recognized family positioning simplifies purchasing, validation, and training.

4) Materials and construction
TX1060 is a sealed-border, double-knit, 100% continuous-filament polyester wiper. The key differentiator is the surface differential: one side is engineered with honeycomb pockets intended to capture and retain particles; the other side is smooth for controlled finishing passes.
  • Material: 100% continuous-filament polyester
  • Construction: double-knit with two engineered surfaces
  • Edge: thermally sealed border on all four sides
  • Form: dry, non-sterile cleanroom wiper

5) Specifications in context
Use the table below as a purchasing and qualification baseline. In stricter environments (ISO 3–4), success is typically driven as much by technique, wetting chemistry, and handling discipline as by the wiper itself.

6) Cleanliness and process notes
Sealed-border polyester wipers are often selected because they help control two failure modes: edge shedding and fiber release. TX1060 adds a third control lever: surface engineering aimed at grit encapsulation for cleaning steps that are more than cosmetic.
Program tip: if you are standardizing across multiple ISO areas, train operators on which face to use first (capture face) and when to switch to the smooth face for final passes. That single habit reduces rework and prevents “scrub marks” from over-working a surface.

7) Packaging and traceability
Packaging discipline is part of contamination control. TX1060 is supplied as a dry, non-sterile wiper with inner-bag configuration intended to support organized staging and controlled introduction into cleaner zones.
  • Bag unit: 100 wipers/bag (2 inner bags of 50)
  • Case unit: 10 bags/case (1,000 total)
  • Traceability: retain bag/case identifiers with receiving records so deviations and investigations have fewer unknowns.

8) Best-practice wiping
  • Pre-wet consistently: if using a solvent (IPA/DI-water blends, validated chemistries), apply a controlled wetting volume for repeatability.
  • Use the right face: start with the honeycomb side for capture/scrub where appropriate; finish with the smooth side for final passes.
  • Fold discipline: fold into usable faces; rotate to a clean face before the wiper is overloaded.
  • One-direction strokes: avoid circular scrubbing unless your SOP calls for it; one-direction passes reduce redeposition.
  • Don’t “overuse” a wiper: a saturated/loaded wipe becomes a contamination source. Define change triggers (time, area covered, visible loading).

Matching consumables: wiper + swab
If you are running ISO-controlled processes, align wiping and swabbing tools to the same cleanliness intent so particles and residues are controlled end-to-end. For precision cleaning, many programs qualify ultraclean polyester knit swabs for corners, crevices, and validation sampling.
Note on terminology: when specifying wipes, use “low-lint” or “low-linting” language — no wiper is truly lint-free.

9) Common failure modes
  • Redeposition: using the same face too long or wiping back over the same path with a loaded wiper.
  • Wrong chemistry: solvent incompatibility or insufficient wetting can smear residues instead of removing them.
  • Technique drift: “scrub everywhere” habits can create micro-marring on sensitive finishes; use defined strokes.
  • Boundary breakdown: staging open bags in uncontrolled areas or touching non-controlled surfaces during cleaning tasks.

10) Closest alternates
If you are standardizing a sealed-border polyester platform, these are common alternates customers compare in the same 9" × 9" format. Always compare the surface intent (scrub/capture vs. general wipe), sorption feel, and your process acceptance criteria.
