    FAQs

    Aerospace wipes are engineered to meet strict industry regulations where safety and consistency are non-negotiable. Unlike general industrial wipes, they are low-lint, solvent resistant, and often comply with specifications such as AMS 3819 Class 2 Grade A wipes or BMS 15-5F wipes. This ensures they won’t contaminate sensitive components, coatings, or bonded joints, helping to maintain airworthiness and compliance.

    Using unsuitable wipes can lead to serious issues such as lint contamination, bonding failures, or chemical incompatibility with solvents and coatings. In aerospace, this risks both regulatory non-compliance and costly rework. The right aerospace solvent resistant wipes not only ensure cleaning effectiveness but also protect both surfaces and workers.

    The best nonwoven wipes for aerospace parts are those combining high absorbency, strength, and ultra-low linting properties. Options such as Harrisons’ Technical and Premium ranges and market-proven solutions like Chicopee VeraClean aerospace wipes are specifically designed to withstand demanding surface preparation and finishing tasks while leaving no residue behind.

    In most cases, yes. Standards such as AMS 3819 Class 2 Grade A wipes and BMS 15-5F wipes exist to guarantee wipes are safe and effective for aerospace use. By choosing aerospace grade wipes that meet these requirements, you eliminate variability, achieve compliance, and reduce the risks associated with untested or non-certified products.

    Aerospace tack cloths are specially treated to capture fine dust and particles that can ruin coatings or paint finishes. By ensuring surfaces are contaminant-free before application, these wipes enhance adhesion, reduce rework, and improve overall surface quality. In processes such as surface preparation, tack wipes are often the last line of defence against defects.

    Yes, but only if they are carefully engineered. The Tech 100 and Prem 100 sustainable wipes are made with plastic-free materials that deliver the same cleaning strength and absorbency as conventional wipes. The Tech 100 and Prem 100 are compostable too, helping operators align with sustainability targets without compromising performance.

    Some aerospace operations require controlled environments, particularly when assembling or maintaining high-value components. For these tasks, ISO cleanroom wipes for aerospace are the right choice, as they are designed to minimise particle generation and chemical contamination while maintaining consistent performance.

    While general-purpose solvent wipes can break down under exposure, aerospace solvent resistant wipes are engineered to handle aggressive cleaning chemicals without tearing, shredding, or leaching binders. This makes them essential for degreasing, paint preparation, and critical cleaning in aerospace environments.
