Filters for Electronics Applications
Better flow. Better retention. Best economics.
With razor-thin profit margins, controlling costs in electronics fabrication is critically important, but in competition with process stability. GORE® Filters for Electronics Applications enable significant cost savings over standard filters, without sacrificing performance.
Through a significant advancement in membrane technology, GORE® Filters provide up to 3 times the flow rate of industry standard filters without sacrificing retention. The simple substitution of GORE® Filters in existing systems enables:
- Improved bath cleanliness
- Faster process times
- Extended online service life
- Lower cost of ownership
GORE® Filters are composed of sturdy, reliable PTFE media and are 100% integrity-tested. A range of micron ratings and product sizes are available for use in the manufacturing processes and fabrication of hard disk drives.
GORE® Filters provide performance advantages for most electronics liquid filtration processes.
