New Towel Wipe Cleans, Reduces Static, Stops Rust

A patented, new wipe from Cortec® cleans, reduces static charge, and stops rust all in one convenient and tough towelette. Made with Dupont®'s strong Sontara® non-woven fabric, the 8" x 12" Corwipe® 500 holds up to both industrial and commercial cleaning applications. The new wipe replaces the old combination of cleaning rags with spray cleaners and aerosols.

Corwipe® 500 offers a more economical alternative to cleaning with rags, paper towels, spray cleaners and aerosols. In addition, it is a safer alternative. There are no harsh chemical odors in the air. Corwipe® 500 contains active water-based material that is safe to handle and not harmful to skin. It is classified as non-hazardous and non-flammable. Unlike many other aerosol or solvent containing industrial cleaners, Corwipe® 500 effectively removes tough soils without the use of any ozone depleting chemicals or flammable solvents.

With its non-hazardous characteristics, Corwipe® 500 can be used for electronic and electrical applications including control panels, instrumentation, computers, aviation, and communication equipment. The product works effectively for most hard surfaces including plastic, rubber, painted, glass, and metals. As the wipe cleans a metal surface, it forms a protective antistatic and thin VpCI® (Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitor^TM) film. The static dissipative film will drain charges when properly grounded and reduce triboelectric voltages to less than 300 volts. The transparent VpCI®^TM film stops rust and corrosion on steel, stainless, aluminum, copper and copper alloys. It inhibits further corrosion for up to three (3) months.

Corwipe® 500 comes with twelve (12) wipes packaged in a resealable foil pouch. Its convenient resealable foil pouch is easy to store in desk drawers, work benches, tool and maintenance kits where liquid spray cleaners and paper towels take too much space or would be identified as a hazardous cleaning substance such as an aerosol, solvent, or aggressive liquid chemical.
