TX1109 TechniCloth II 9" x 9" Cellulose and Polyester Cleanroom Wiper

TX1109 TechniCloth II is a low-linting (no wiper is truly ‘zero-lint’ in every process condition), high-absorbency hydro-entangled nonwoven wiper used for critical wipe-downs, spill control, and solution application in controlled environments. It is fabricated from a 55% cellulose / 45% polyester blend and treated with Texwipe’s ULP (ultralow particulate) process to help reduce particle generation while maintaining the wet strength and durability teams rely on for day-to-day cleaning tasks.

Best-seller note: TX1109 is frequently specified when teams want the absorbency of a blended nonwoven, plus ULP treatment for lower particle generation in routine wipe-down work and wet processing steps.

About the Manufacturer:

Texwipe (an ITW company) differentiates itself in cleanroom wiping by treating the wiper as an engineered product, not a commodity consumable. For blended nonwovens like TechniCloth II, the platform combines hydro-entangled construction (no chemical binders) with controlled cleanliness processing and solvent-safe packaging systems designed to reduce handling-driven contamination risk and support repeatable lot-to-lot performance.

Texwipe also emphasizes verification and disciplined packaging/traceability practices. 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.

TX1109 Features:

Fiber blend (55% cellulose and 45% polyester)
Non-woven, hydro-entangled construction with excellent bidirectional strength
ULP process (ultralow particulate) treatment
Solvent-safe Bag-Within-A-Bag® cleanroom packaging
Statistical quality control

TX1109 Benefits:

Reduced particle generation: ULP treatment is designed to help reduce particle release during wipe-downs (process-dependent)
Durability and absorbency: Blended cellulose/polyester construction provides wet strength and high absorbency for wipe-downs and spill control
Traceability: Lot-to-lot traceability supports documentation review and audit readiness

Common Applications:

Critical environments where low particle generation and high absorbency are prime considerations
Integrated circuit, printed circuit board, and electronic components fabrication support cleaning (per SOP)
Spill control and pickup of aqueous or solvent-based fluids (verify compatibility to your chemistry and SOP)
Cleaning and polishing precision components and lab apparatus
Routine wipe-downs commonly associated with ISO Class 6–7 controlled areas

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.
Wet vs. dry: For solvent wipe-downs, dampen—do not over-saturate—so you maintain control and reduce dripping.
Residue discipline: With blended nonwovens, replace the wipe before it becomes overloaded; if you see streaking, switch to a fresh face and re-wipe in a single direction per your SOP.
Change-out triggers: Replace the wiper when the face becomes visibly soiled, tacky, or begins leaving streaks/residue.

Selection Notes (TX1109 vs. Other Options)

TX1109 (TechniCloth II) vs. TX609 (TechniCloth): Both are cellulose/polyester blends; TechniCloth II adds ULP treatment to help reduce particle generation compared with its predecessor, making it a common step-up choice when particle control needs tighten.
TX1109 vs. TX629 (VersaWipe): Both are economical blended nonwovens; VersaWipe is often selected for everyday controlled wiping, while TX1109 is commonly chosen when teams want the TechniCloth II ULP positioning for lower particle generation.
Dry vs. pre-wetted: If you want consistent wetting and reduced solvent handling, consider pre-wetted blended options such as TechniSat formats (70% IPA options are common for routine wipe-downs).

ISO 14644 Operations Control TechniCloth® II Cellulose/Polyester Blend General Cleaning & Pickup 9" x 9" Standard Format Lot Traceability

Texwipe TX1109 TechniCloth® II 9" x 9": reliable blend-wiper pickup for routine controlled-environment cleaning

Texwipe TX1109 TechniCloth® II is a cleanroom wiper made from a cellulose/polyester blend in a 9" x 9" format. Blend wipes are often chosen for daily cleaning programs because they provide strong sorbency and effective pickup for routine wipe-downs, solution application/removal, and light spill control. TX1109 is a practical “general-purpose” option when your method is focused on efficient soil capture and routine maintenance, and when the process does not require sealed-edge construction or an ultra-low extractables grade for the wiping step.

Operations takeaway: TechniCloth® II works best when the SOP defines (1) single-pass faces, (2) clean-to-less-clean flow, and (3) discard triggers. The wiper should remove contamination—not move it around.

ISO-first context: define the role of TX1109 inside the cleaning method

ISO 14644-5:2025 emphasizes an Operations Control Programme (OCP) that governs cleaning methods and contamination controls. In many facilities, blend wipes are assigned to pickup and general cleaning because they efficiently capture soils and liquids. For higher-sensitivity steps, programs commonly define a two-step wipe sequence: (1) remove bulk soils with a blend wipe, then (2) perform the finishing pass with the validated low-lint or sealed-edge wipe required by the SOP. The goal is to prevent the “general-purpose” wipe from being unintentionally used in critical finishing steps.

Control point: Document where TX1109 is allowed (routine pickup/cleaning) versus where a different validated finishing wipe is mandatory. This reduces method drift and audit findings.

Specifications (SKU controls for RFQs, SOPs, and receiving)

Product: Texwipe TechniCloth® II TX1109
Size: 9" x 9" nominal (23 cm x 23 cm)
Material / structure: Cellulose/polyester blend; nonwoven (verify current construction per manufacturer documentation)
Edge: Cut edge (processed for cleanroom use; confirm on current datasheet)
Processing: Cleanroom processed and packaged; lot traceability
Typical ISO positioning: ISO Class 6–8 (process dependent; confirm for your method and environment)
Packaging: Verify current bag/case counts and configuration per current manufacturer documentation

Receiving rule: Lock the exact SKU and configuration in SOPs and RFQs. “Equivalent” blend wipes can differ in pickup behavior and residue contribution.

What TX1109 is designed to do (typical use cases)

Routine wiping of benches, carts, and equipment in controlled environments
Solution application and pickup where sorbency and soil capture are primary outcomes
Light spill control and general maintenance wipe-downs
Bulk soil removal prior to a validated finishing pass (when required)
Everyday cleaning tasks where sealed-edge construction is not required by the process

Two-step method note: If the surface finish is critical, use TX1109 for pickup first, then perform the final pass with the validated finishing wipe required by the SOP.

Best-practice use (reduce spread and redeposit)

Control introduction: bring wipes into the controlled area per OCP rules (outer packaging removal, staging, storage).
Fold for faces: create multiple faces; use one face per pass.
Damp-film control: if using solvent, wet to a controlled damp state; avoid dripping and pooling.
Unidirectional strokes: parallel, overlapping passes; avoid circular scrubbing.
Clean-to-less-clean flow: do not backtrack into cleaned zones with a used face.
Discard triggers: replace when loaded, smeary, tacky, or when pickup performance drops.

Technique tip: Standardize wetness target, fold pattern, stroke count, and discard point—then train and audit to keep outcomes consistent.

Misuse controls & when not to use TX1109

If sterility is required: do not substitute a non-sterile wipe for sterile workflows.
If ultra-low residues/ions are gating: validate NVR/ionic requirements to your limits; use a polyester knit or sealed-edge wipe for the finishing pass if required.
If haze-sensitive finishes are involved: validate pressure and finishing method; blend wipes may behave differently than knit polyester on critical optics/coatings.
If aggressive chemistry is used: verify compatibility and safety for solvents/cleaners; 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 wiping.

Ansell Nitrilite® 93-311 Cleanroom Nitrile Gloves — ISO Class 5 (Class 100), cleanroom processed and packaged

Why this matters: Routine wipes become a contamination source if glove contact is uncontrolled. A cleanroom-grade glove supports method repeatability and reduces transfer risk.

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