Glass Fiber Sheets & Discs Type-GF/1

Glass Fiber Sheets & Discs Type-GF/1:

Glass Fiber Sheets & Discs Type-GF/1 are precision-engineered filtration media composed of high-purity borosilicate glass microfibers. These filters are specifically designed for general-purpose filtration, serving a crucial role in laboratory sample preparation and environmental testing. Their uniform fiber structure ensures excellent particle retention and reliable flow characteristics, making them a versatile solution for various analytical and quality control applications.

Versatile Applications Across Laboratories

Type-GF/1 glass fiber filters are commonly used in applications such as:

• Liquid clarification

• Suspended solids analysis

• Prefiltration before membrane filtration

• Gravimetric analysis of wastewater or water samples

Thanks to their broad chemical compatibility, these filters can be confidently used with both aqueous and organic solvents, enhancing their flexibility in complex laboratory environments.

Durable and Chemically Resistant

Even when wet, GF/1 filters retain their mechanical strength, making them ideal for procedures that require high fluid volumes or prolonged filtration. The borosilicate microfibers are naturally resistant to most acids and bases, allowing the filters to maintain performance in aggressive chemical conditions without structural breakdown or contamination.

High Loading Capacity and Efficiency

The high loading capacity of Type-GF/1 filters allows them to trap more particulate matter before needing replacement, improving efficiency and reducing downtime. This also makes them excellent prefilters—they protect more delicate membranes by capturing large particulates beforehand, thereby extending membrane life and ensuring consistent filtration flow rates.

Reliable Performance for Critical Results

Whether used in standalone filtration tasks or integrated into complex multi-stage systems, Glass Fiber Sheets & Discs Type-GF/1 offer reliable and repeatable performance. Their consistent pore structure supports accurate sample analysis, especially where precision in solid quantification or contaminant removal is required.
