TX3059 Sterile Vertex 9" x 9" Microdenier Sealed Edge Cleanroom Wiper

TX3059 is a low-linting (no wiper is truly ‘zero-lint’ in every process condition) 100% polyester, double-knit microdenier cleanroom wiper engineered for streak-sensitive wipe-downs, disinfectant residue removal, and critical cleaning steps where surface protection matters. The microdenier yarn construction increases filament count and surface area versus standard polyester knits, helping the wiper lift and retain fine contamination while maintaining a soft hand on scratch-prone surfaces.

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 Vertex-family wipers, Texwipe emphasizes automation-forward, hands-free manufacturing and verification disciplines that reduce handling-driven contamination risk and improve lot-to-lot consistency.

 

For sterile microdenier formats like TX3059, Texwipe pairs sealed-edge construction with sterilization validation and documentation practices (e.g., certificates of processing/compliance and sterility assurance expectations). SOSCleanroom (SOS) supports that discipline with 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.

TX3059 Features:
  • Microdenier yarn for increased surface area and fine-particle capture
  • Very tight, stable fabric construction
  • Gamma irradiated in accordance with ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11137 (sterile validated)
  • Certificates of Processing and Compliance attached to each case
  • Quarterly microbial testing by Agarose Overlay and Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL) endotoxin testing
TX3059 Benefits:
  • Residue control: Microdenier knit is commonly selected to remove disinfectant residue more effectively than standard knit wipers (process-dependent)
  • Surface protection: Soft hand and sealed edge help reduce snagging and support streak-sensitive wipe-downs on scratch-prone surfaces
  • Sterility assurance: Sterile validated to a Sterility Assurance Level of 10−6 (per manufacturer positioning)
  • Endotoxin/cytotoxicity confidence: LAL endotoxin testing and agar overlay verification support contamination-control programs reviewing microbial and residue risk
  • Process reach: Ability to contact surface irregularities and capture fine contamination within the fiber bundle
Common Applications:
  • Streak-sensitive wipe-downs on glass, polished metals, coated parts, and other scratch-prone surfaces
  • Disinfectant residue removal steps (including QUAT programs where nylon-free materials are preferred)
  • Critical cleaning of equipment exteriors, fixtures, and tool surfaces in sterile workflows
  • Final wipe steps where low extractables/low particles are a decision driver (process-dependent)
  • Wiping irregular geometries where fiber-bundle capture can improve cleaning efficiency
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 disinfectant/solvent wipe-downs, dampen—do not over-saturate—so you maintain control and reduce dripping.
  • Scratch-risk discipline: Do not “scrub” with pressure; let the microdenier surface do the work and change-out frequently on abrasive soils.
  • Change-out triggers: Replace the wiper when the face becomes visibly soiled, tacky, or begins to streak.
Selection Notes (TX3059 vs. Other Options)
  • TX3059 vs. TX3052: Same sterile Vertex microdenier family; choose TX3059 (9" x 9") for tighter work zones and controlled handling, and TX3052 (12" x 12") when coverage per wipe matters.
  • Microdenier vs. standard polyester knit: Choose microdenier when streaking, residue removal, or scratch-susceptible surfaces drive the risk assessment; use standard knits when cost-per-wipe and general wipe-down durability are primary.
  • Sealed edge vs. laundered cut edge: Sealed edges are typically preferred where edge fiber release and particle control are under tighter scrutiny (process-dependent).

ISO 14644 Operations Control Texwipe Vertex® (Sterile) Microdenier Polyester / Sealed Edge Sterile Precision Wipe-Down & Surface Prep 9" x 9" Lot Traceability
Texwipe TX3059 Sterile Vertex® 9" x 9" Microdenier Polyester Sealed-Edge Cleanroom Wiper — sterile precision wiping for sensitive surfaces and residue-controlled finishing passes

Texwipe TX3059 Sterile Vertex® is a sterile, 9" x 9" microdenier polyester cleanroom wiper with sealed edges, selected when the cleaning method calls for a more refined wipe surface and perimeter control. Microdenier polyester platforms are commonly evaluated for precision wiping and finishing passes on smooth or sensitive surfaces where streaking, film, or light residues can drive rework. The sealed edge provides an additional control point at the wipe boundary, supporting methods that aim to reduce edge fray and unintended perimeter transfer near critical interfaces. The 9" x 9" format supports repeatable fold patterns, one-face-per-pass technique, and controlled wipe coverage across benches, carts, equipment exteriors, and staging surfaces (as defined in your SOP). As with all sterile wipes, performance is technique-driven: control introduction, maintain package integrity, enforce clean-to-less-clean flow, and set discard triggers that prevent re-deposition. Final suitability should be confirmed against current manufacturer documentation and your internal limits for residues, ions, and surface finish sensitivity.

Operations takeaway: TX3059 supports ISO-aligned operations control when it is treated as a controlled “finishing pass” wipe: standardize wetness target, stroke count, fold pattern, and change-out point. If streaking is observed, reduce wetness, tighten one-face-per-pass discipline, and prevent backtracking into cleaned zones.

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.

What this wiper is designed to do (typical use cases)
  • Sterile precision wipe-downs where a refined wipe surface is preferred for residue-controlled finishing passes.
  • Controlled damp-film wiping on smooth or sensitive surfaces where streaking/film can drive rework (validate on your surface finishes).
  • Cleaning near interfaces where sealed-edge perimeter control is part of the method requirement.
  • Final wipe steps on equipment exteriors and staging surfaces when the SOP specifies stroke pattern, wetness target, and discard triggers.
  • Intervention support in sterile workflows where package control, technique discipline, and one-face-per-pass wiping are required.

Method note: If the method requires an ultra-clean finishing pass, define it explicitly: last-pass chemistry (if any), one-direction stroke pattern, and a strict discard point to prevent re-deposition. 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: if using solvent, wet to a controlled damp state (not dripping).
  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, 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 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 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.
