Whatman 2603T Polycap TF 36, 1.0 micrometer Pore Size, PTFE, FNPT Inlet, FNPT Outlet, 5/pk

The Whatman Polycap TF 36 capsule filter is designed for in-line filtration of organic solvents, aggressive chemicals, air, and gas streams. Its hydrophobic PTFE membrane provides strong chemical resistance, making it suitable for laboratory, pharmaceutical, and electronics applications that require reliable particulate removal.

A 1.0 micron pore size is commonly used for prefiltration or removal of larger particles from highly contaminated solutions. This pore size helps extend the life of downstream filters while maintaining strong flow rates during filtration processes.

The filter contains a hydrophobic PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) membrane housed in a polypropylene capsule. PTFE membranes are widely used because they resist most solvents and aggressive chemicals while maintaining high filtration efficiency.

Yes. Polycap TF capsule filters can typically be sterilized by autoclaving at approximately 121 °C for about 20 minutes, making them suitable for sterile filtration workflows in research and production environments.

This model features FNPT (Female National Pipe Thread) inlet and outlet connections, allowing it to be easily integrated into many laboratory or process filtration systems using standard threaded fittings.
