Consistently clean, exceptionally absorbent Every DuPont™ Sontara® aerospace grade wipe is clean right out of the box. In contrast, rental towels can still contain chemical residue, stains, and metal shavings after laundering. Rags made from used clothing are often stained and lack the absorbency and other characteristics needed for critical cleaning.
Sontara® aerospace grade wipes are great for wiping surfaces dry because they're made of “thirsty“ fiber blends that contain no additives that hinder absorbency. And they're ideal for cleaning hard-to-reach corners and crevices.
Sontara® aerospace grade wipes are specially engineered to resist snagging on metal parts and corners. That's why they're superior to paper wipes that snag and tear, leaving lint behind. Sontara® aerospace grade wipes also outperform cheesecloth, which can fray and leave behind threads that result in rework.
Sontara® wipes are manufactured in a unique process that creates a strong, low-linting fabric which is softer than conventional wipes.
Advantages that reduce costs: Exceptionally clean—contains no binders, chemical residue, contaminants or metal shavings that can result in surface damage or rework Higher absorbency rate can result in wiping jobs being completed more quickly Low-lint performance helps to minimize defects and contamination Durable—high strength fiber blend makes Sontara® aerospace grade wipes less likely to snag on metal parts and sharp corners Tackles isopropyl alcohol, MEK, MPK, and other aggressive solvents without falling apart Very absorbent—fewer wipes needed to complete the task results in fewer wipes to dispose of Suitable for:
Surface preparation before coating, sealant, or adhesive application Weapon systems maintenance Laboratories and production areas Aerospace vehicle production Composites manufacturing Heavy equipment maintenance
Application Versatility
Cockpit transparencies Passenger windows (cleans both interior and exterior surfaces) Other acrylic, polycarbonate or glass surfaces on board aircraft
