A large polyurethane foam head on a blue PP shaft, for cleaning recesses and edges where a wipe cannot reach.

Construction

Open-cell foam traps particles and holds solvent at the tip instead of wicking it down the shaft. The wide head covers more area per pass, which suits cleaning seams, grooves and connector cavities.

Where it is used

  • Connector and port cleaning
  • Seam and groove cleaning on housings
  • Applying solvent to small areas
  • Precision instrument maintenance

Handling notes

Use one swab per pass and discard. Do not re-dip a used swab into a solvent bottle — decant a small volume first.
