Texwipe TX49P Vertex® 9" x 9" Polyester Cleanroom Wipers - Laser-Sealed Edge - Pre-Wetted 70% IPA / 30% DIW - 300/Case
Texwipe TX49P Vertex® is a non-sterile, pre-wetted cleanroom wiper manufactured from 100% polyester knit material with laser-processed sealed edges. Designed for critical cleaning applications, TX49P combines Texwipe's automated Vertex® manufacturing system with a high-sorption polyester substrate and factory-prepared 70% isopropyl alcohol (IPA) / 30% deionized water (DIW) solution.
Each nominal 9" x 9" wiper features a sealed-edge perimeter designed to help minimize edge-related fiber shedding during controlled wiping. The polyester knit provides high liquid sorption, a soft wiping surface, and durability for cleaning compatible equipment, components, fixtures, and workstations.
TX49P is factory pre-wetted with 70% USP-grade IPA and 30% DIW using a solution filtered to 0.2 µm. The ready-to-use format helps minimize manual solvent preparation, individual-wiper wetting, and direct spraying of cleaning liquid inside contamination-sensitive work areas.
Texwipe's Vertex® processing system uses automated manufacturing to control handling and material contamination. The manufacturer reports typical low levels of particles, fibers, ions, and nonvolatile residues, as well as periodic cytotoxicity and bacterial-endotoxin testing as part of its material evaluation program. These characteristics support material qualification but do not constitute a guarantee of zero contamination or product sterility.
Texwipe identifies Vertex® wipers for ISO Classes 3 through 7 and EU GMP Grades A through D. These designations describe the manufacturer's intended product application range and do not independently establish the classification of a cleanroom, prove cleaning effectiveness, or make TX49P suitable for every aseptic process.
TX49P is supplied in reclosable slider bags containing 75 pre-wetted wipers. A complete manufacturer case includes 4 bags, totaling 300 wipers. SOSCleanroom offers TX49P by the complete manufacturer case. The reclosable package helps preserve wipe wetness and reduce unnecessary evaporation between dispensing events.
Vertex® Cleaning Advantage: TX49P combines laser-sealed polyester edges, high-sorption knit construction, automated substrate processing, and factory-prepared USP-grade 70% IPA / 30% DIW. Its 75-count reclosable slider bags help support consistent solvent wiping, controlled dispensing, and reduced handling of separate cleaning solutions.

Laser-Sealed Edges and Vertex® Polyester Construction:
TX49P uses a high-sorption 100% polyester knit with sealed edges manufactured through Texwipe's automated Vertex® process. The edge construction is intended to help minimize edge-derived fiber shedding during suitable wiping operations.
- Laser-Processed Edges: Provide a sealed perimeter rather than exposed cut edges.
- Polyester Knit: Provides mechanical strength, flexibility, and controlled surface contact.
- High Sorption: Suitable for collecting compatible liquids and distributing pre-wetted cleaning solution.
- Automated Processing: Helps control substrate handling and removable contaminants.
- Low Fiber Contribution: Sealed edges help reduce one potential source of fibers.
- Mechanical Limitations: Excessive rubbing against sharp edges can still damage the wiping material.
- Surface Compatibility: Evaluate both fabric contact and IPA chemistry before use on sensitive finishes.
- Critical Qualification: Compare the material's cleanliness characteristics to the actual particle, fiber, ionic, and residue requirements.
Edge Construction Guidance: TX49P has laser-processed sealed edges. Sealing reduces edge-associated shedding but does not mean the product is completely particle-free, fiber-free, or sterile. Evaluate the complete wiper and cleaning technique against the specific process requirements.
70% IPA / 30% DIW Chemistry and Solvent Delivery:
TX49P is pre-wetted with USP-grade 70% IPA and 30% DIW. The solution is filtered to 0.2 µm, and manufacturer-controlled filling supports repeatable initial wetness when wipes are stored and dispensed appropriately.
- 70% IPA: Supports removal of compatible process soils, oils, and residues.
- 30% DIW: Provides the water component of the prepared formulation.
- USP-Grade IPA: The manufacturer-identified alcohol grade for TX49P.
- 0.2 µm Filtration: Used in preparing the wetting solution.
- Factory Pre-Wetting: Reduces variability caused by manual solvent mixing and wipe saturation.
- Controlled Initial Solvent Application: Helps operators standardize the consumable used during cleaning.
- Actual Solvent Loading: An exact volume per wiper is not published in the reviewed TDS.
- Evaporation: IPA loss can occur if the bag is left open or stored improperly.
- Surface Compatibility: Evaluate plastics, adhesives, optical coatings, labels, and other sensitive materials.
- Non-Sterile Presentation: Filtering the solution does not make the finished wipe sterile.
- Disinfection Limitation: Do not infer registered disinfectant efficacy or a universal wet-contact time solely from the 70% IPA concentration.
- Sporicidal Limitation: TX49P is not a substitute for a qualified sporicide.
Chemistry Guidance: TX49P delivers a defined 70% IPA / 30% DIW cleaning formulation. Cleaning, surface disinfection, and sterilization are distinct processes. Follow the approved procedure and use separately qualified products when validated antimicrobial or sporicidal efficacy is required.
Manufacturer Cleanliness and Material Testing:
Texwipe reports typical performance values for the Vertex® 40 Series polyester substrate used in the TX49P product family. The published values are intended to support wiper selection and qualification planning rather than to guarantee a particular lot's analytical results.

40-Series Value |
| Particles ≥0.5 µm |
9.5 x 106 particles/m² |
| Fibers >100 µm |
200 fibers/m² |
| Nonvolatile Residue - IPA Extractant |
0.02 g/m² |
| Nonvolatile Residue - DIW Extractant |
0.01 g/m² |
| Sodium |
0.17 ppm |
| Potassium |

| Sorptive Rate |
0.3 second |
| Basis Weight |
130 g/m² |
Texwipe also identifies periodic testing for cytotoxicity and bacterial endotoxins as part of its Vertex® contamination-control program. Where numerical endotoxin limits, cytotoxicity acceptance criteria, or lot-specific values are required, request the applicable manufacturer documentation.
Performance Data Guidance: These are typical Vertex® substrate analyses, not TX49P lot certificates or finished-surface cleanliness guarantees. Sorptive capacity describes a material test and should not be confused with the actual pre-wet liquid loading per wiper.
Recommended Wiping Procedure and Contamination-Control Practices:
The cleaning effectiveness of TX49P depends on the contamination type, surface material, wiping method, and solvent exposure. The following practices are general guidance and should be implemented through the facility's approved SOP.
- Verify Product Suitability: Confirm the polyester material, 70% IPA formulation, and non-sterile status meet the task requirements.
- Inspect Packaging: Verify part number, lot, expiration, and bag integrity.
- Prepare the Work Area: Follow the approved material-transfer and surface-cleaning procedure.
- Wear Appropriate PPE: Use suitable cleanroom gloves and required task-specific protective equipment.
- Open the Slider Bag: Open only enough to dispense the required wiper.
- Protect Remaining Wipes: Avoid touching unused wipers with contaminated gloves or equipment.
- Reseal Promptly: Close the bag to help maintain solvent wetness.
- Fold for Control: Use an approved folding method to create manageable clean wiping faces.
- Apply Controlled Strokes: Wipe in straight, overlapping passes in the specified direction.
- Maintain Appropriate Pressure: Avoid aggressive abrasion, unnecessary scrubbing, or fabric damage.
- Rotate Wiping Faces: Reduce redeposition by moving to clean portions of the wiper.
- Control Surface Wetness: Avoid unwanted pooling and follow the required surface drying conditions.
- Replace Wipers: Discard material when soiled, damaged, dry, or at the approved change-out interval.
- Do Not Reuse: Never return a used wiper to the original package.
- Document Cleaning: Record lot and activity information when required.
Wiping Guidance: Pre-wetted wipers support consistent solvent preparation but do not establish a universal number of passes, cleaning area, or microbial contact time. Define these operational limits through the applicable surface-cleaning and contamination-control procedure.
Reclosable Packaging and Evaporation Control:
Proper bag closure helps maintain the manufacturer-prepared wetness of TX49P. Repeated exposure to air, excessive heat, and contamination of the bag opening can affect the remaining wipes.
- Minimize Open Time: Open the bag only when dispensing.
- Close the Slider Fully: Check the complete closure before returning the bag to storage.
- Protect the Opening: Avoid contact with used gloves, tools, and uncontrolled work surfaces.
- Control Evaporation: Do not leave pre-wetted wipes exposed to air unnecessarily.
- Check Wetness: Discard unexpectedly dry or compromised wipes.
- Avoid Unapproved Re-Wetting: Added solution may change the manufacturer-prepared condition.
- Maintain Lot Identification: Keep original product and expiration information available.
- Follow Open-Pack Limits: Apply the facility's approved in-use period and storage procedure.
Non-Sterile TX49P Compared with Sterile Vertex®:
Texwipe offers both sterile and non-sterile Vertex® wiping products. Although they may share similar polyester construction and IPA formulations, their sterility, validation documentation, and packaging differ.
- TX49P: Non-sterile 9" x 9" Vertex®, pre-wetted with 70% IPA, 75 wipes per bag and 300 per case.
- TX3049P: Sterile 9" x 9" Vertex® pre-wetted alternative, 25 wipes per reclosable bag and five bags per case.
- Sterility Assurance: Do not attribute the sterile version's validated SAL or irradiation documentation to TX49P.
- Cleanroom Positioning: ISO Classes 3-7 does not mean TX49P is sterile or automatically acceptable for every Grade A process.
- Material Qualification: A change between sterile and non-sterile variants requires appropriate quality approval.
- Packaging Difference: Confirm the complete manufacturer part number and case quantity when substituting.
Sterility Guidance: TX49P is non-sterile. For applications requiring sterile wiping materials, select an appropriately qualified sterile product and review its own manufacturer sterility and irradiation documentation.
Selection Notes: Vertex® Wiper Alternatives:
Different Vertex® products may share sealed-edge construction but differ in dimensions, wetting chemistry, sterility, and packaging. Selection should follow the actual cleaning surface and approved process.
