TX2069 ThermaSeal60 9" x 9" Polyester Cleanroom Wiper

TX2069 ThermaSeal60 is a low-linting (no wiper is truly ‘zero-lint’ in every process condition), sealed-edge, all-purpose polyester knit wiper used for spill control, cleaning, and solution application in controlled environments. It is constructed from 100% continuous-filament, double-knit polyester and finished with thermally sealed (laser) edges to help control particle and fiber release during wipe-downs—especially on more abrasive surfaces.

Best-seller note: TX2069 is widely specified as a sealed-edge workhorse wiper because it balances absorbency, wiping efficiency, abrasion resistance, and broad chemical compatibility for everyday cleanroom wipe-downs 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. In the ThermaSeal 60 platform, that shows up in knit fabric selection (continuous-filament polyester), edge construction (laser-cut thermal sealing for edge integrity), and controlled laundering/packaging intended to support predictable contamination control and chemical compatibility with standard solvents, solutions, and alcohols.

Texwipe also positions ThermaSeal 60 for abrasive-surface wipe-downs and publishes technical baselines (including particles/fibers, ions, NVRs, and physical absorbency characteristics) to support qualification. 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.

Wiping and cleaning surfaces, equipment and parts
Applying and removing lubricants, adhesives, residues and other solutions including disinfectants
Cleaning with solvents such as isopropyl alcohol (IPA), ethanol, acetone, and degreasers
Lining trays for holding, protecting, drying and storing of parts, equipment and devices
Semiconductor and microelectronics general wiping and cleaning
Medical device product cleaning and general equipment wipe-downs
USP <797> / USP <800> environment wipe-down workflows (per site SOP)

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) with slight overlap to avoid re-depositing contamination.
Wet vs. dry: For solvent wipe-downs, dampen—do not over-saturate—so you maintain control and reduce dripping.
Abrasive-surface discipline: Start with light pressure to reduce snag risk; change faces early when wiping fasteners, tool lips, textured coatings, and sharp stainless corners.
Change-out triggers: Replace the wiper when the face becomes visibly soiled, tacky, or leaves streaks/residue.
Autoclave note: If autoclaving dry wipes for a specific workflow, follow site validation and packaging/handling SOPs.

Selection Notes (TX2069 vs. Other Options)

TX2069 vs. TX2064: Same ThermaSeal 60 platform and sealed-edge construction; choose TX2064 (4" x 4") when smaller format improves control in tight work areas.
ThermaSeal 60 vs. AlphaWipe (TX1009/TX1009B): Choose ThermaSeal 60 when sealed-edge durability and abrasive-surface performance is the priority; choose AlphaWipe when a cut-edge knit wiper is preferred for general wipe-down coverage and staging.
ThermaSeal 60 vs. ultra-clean sealed-border options: If your process requires an ultra-clean sealed-border wiper with automation-forward processing, compare Vectra sealed-border families (validate with your site’s particle/ionic/NVR limits).

ISO 14644 Operations Control ThermaSeal® 60 Sealed-Edge Polyester Low Fibers / Edge Control 9" x 9" Standard Format Lot Traceability

Texwipe TX2069 ThermaSeal® 60 9" x 9": sealed-edge polyester control for critical wipe-downs and edge-sensitive processes

Texwipe TX2069 ThermaSeal® 60 is a polyester cleanroom wiper in a 9" x 9" format, manufactured with a sealed-edge construction to reduce edge fraying and help control fiber release. Sealed-edge wipes are commonly selected for higher sensitivity cleaning and finishing steps, where the edge of a cut wipe can become a contamination contributor—particularly during unidirectional wipe patterns, corner work, and repeated fold/refold handling. TX2069 is typically used for critical surface wipe-downs, residue-sensitive cleaning, and processes where teams want improved edge cleanliness and consistency.

Operations takeaway: Sealed-edge wipes help reduce a common contamination source—edge shedding—but they still require disciplined technique: defined wetness, single-pass faces, and defined change-out triggers.

ISO-first context: why sealed-edge wipes show up in higher-control methods

ISO 14644-5:2025 emphasizes an Operations Control Programme (OCP) that governs personnel practices, cleaning, maintenance, and monitoring. Within a mature OCP, wipes are selected based on task risk. Sealed-edge polyester wipes are often assigned to critical finishing steps because they help reduce edge-related fibers and can improve consistency when operators fold/refold and apply pressure during wipe-downs. For many facilities, sealed-edge wipes are reserved for ISO Class 5–6 work zones or for surfaces where residues/particles have direct quality impact.

Control point: If your process is edge-sensitive, the wipe edge is part of your contamination budget. Sealed-edge construction is a control measure, not a marketing feature.

Product: Texwipe ThermaSeal® 60 TX2069
Size: 9" x 9" nominal (23 cm x 23 cm)
Material / structure: Polyester (verify knit/nonwoven construction on current manufacturer documentation)
Edge construction: Sealed edge (edge-treated for fiber control)
Processing: Cleanroom processed and packaged; lot traceability
Typical ISO positioning: Frequently used in ISO Class 5–7 methods (process dependent; confirm for your environment)
Packaging: Verify current bag/case counts and configuration per current manufacturer documentation

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

What TX2069 is designed to do (typical use cases)

Critical surface wipe-downs where edge fiber control is important
Cleaning and finishing steps on equipment, fixtures, and parts in ISO-class environments
Solvent wiping where a sealed edge helps reduce fiber release during wet handling (verify compatibility to SOP)
Corner and seam work where edges and folds experience higher mechanical stress
Processes where a controlled wipe contributes directly to yield, rework reduction, or cosmetic finish standards

Method note: Many teams treat sealed-edge wipes as a “finishing tool” and use a separate pickup wipe for bulk soils first. This prevents overloading the finishing wipe.

Best-practice use (maximize edge control and reduce redeposit)

Control introduction: bring wipes into the controlled area per OCP rules (outer packaging removal, staging, storage).
Fold for faces: create multiple faces; keep sealed edges oriented to maintain consistent contact.
Damp-film control: apply solvent to a controlled damp state (not dripping) to reduce streaks and redeposit.
Straight-line strokes: unidirectional, overlapping passes; avoid circular scrubbing.
Single-pass faces: treat each face as one-pass; refold to a clean face rather than reusing a loaded surface.
Discard triggers: discard when loaded, smeary, or when finish quality is at risk; do not “stretch” use on critical steps.

Technique tip: If operators vary in results, standardize wetness target, fold pattern, stroke count, and discard point—sealed edges help, but technique drives outcomes.

Misuse controls & when not to use TX2069

If sterility is required: do not substitute a non-sterile wipe for sterile workflows.
If bulk soils are present: do not start with a finishing wipe; remove bulk contamination first with the designated pickup wipe, then finish with TX2069.
If chemistry is aggressive: verify compatibility and safety for solvents/cleaners; do not assume universal compatibility.
If ultra-low residues/ions are gating: confirm extractables requirements against current manufacturer documentation and your internal limits.

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 critical wipe-downs.

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

Why this matters: Sealed-edge wipes are often used on critical surfaces. Cleanroom-grade gloves reduce transfer contamination and help keep the finishing pass consistent.

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