]Polywater® SpliceMaster® DT-69 Drying Towels are ideal for wiping excess solvent from electrical cables during splicing. Using rags or recycled cloths to wipe cleaners from cable can leave lint that causes tracking and failure. Recycled rags may also contain oils and other residues that can be deposited onto the insulation. Other commercially available towels are not lint free and often contain fiber-bonding adhesives that can lead to splice failure.

Polywater Drying Towels are lint free and contain no fiber-bonding adhesives that could leave a chemical residue. The durable drying towels have excellent absorbency and a high tensile strength in both directions. These non-linting, non-tearing, and non-snagging wipes are versatile, with many uses beyond cable cleaning. The wipes are excellent for use in the PE fusion industries for gas piping and water piping applications. The key to good splices and reliable utility systems is to use recommended materials and follow proper procedures.
