DATA STORAGE APPLICATIONS
Electroless Nickel Plating
Nickel phosphorus is typically used to plate aluminum disks with a very thin and hard nickel coating. Filtration of sub-micron sized particles is essential in removing potentially defect causing particles and plays a role in the reduction of micropitting and other plating defects.
Parker offers a range of filters for disk nickel plating and has been successful in greatly reducing plate-out on the filter, which can result in lost production.
Fluoroflow Pleated Membrane
The Fluoroflow® pleated membrane filter cartridge is our standard product for aggressive wet etch and clean industrial chemical filtration applications. The filter provides good flow rates and on-stream life at an economical cost. Available in 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.45 and 1.0 µm sizes.
Fluoroflow-Select Pleated Membrane
The Fluoroflow-Select pleated membrane filter cartridge provides exceptional flow rates and on-stream life. It utilizes our unique SELECT pleat technology which increases filtration area and flow rate by over 70% versus our standard Fluoroflow filter. Available in 0.03, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.45 and 1.0 µm sizes.
Fluoroflow-HSA Pleated Membrane
The Fluoroflow®-HAS pleated membrane filter cartridge provides good flow rates and on-stream life. The enhanced pleating provides more than 40% more surface area than our standard Fluoroflow filter cartridge. Available in 0.03, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.45 and 1.0 µm sizes.
Fluoroflow-XF Pleated Membrane
Parker’s Fluoroflow-XF all-fluoropolymer membrane filter cartridge provides unmatched flow rates and on-stream life with excellent chemical resistance for aggressive applications up to 150°C. Available in 0.05 and 0.1 µm sizes.
Lube
Lubes are typically low surface tension solvents with dissolved PFPE lubricants, which remain on the media after the solvent evaporates. As fly heights, or the distance between the head slider and media, are reduced to less than 10 nanometers, the removal of nanometer size particles becomes critical to the performance and reliability of the drives.
Parker provides filtration products for lube processes with superior sub-micron particles removal and very low metal extractables.
Chemflow-PE Select Pleated Membrane
Chemically resistant HDPE/PTFE with innovative SELECT pleating technology to provide outstanding flow. Available in 0.03, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2 and 1.0 µm sizes.
Chemflow-XF Pleated Membrane
Chemically resistant HDPE/PTFE for recirculated applications under 60°C. Available in 0.05 and 0.1 µm sizes.
Fluoroflow-Select Pleated Membrane
All-fluoropolymer construction with innovative SELECT pleating technology to increase filtration area by over 70%. Available in 0.03, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.45 and 1.0 µm sizes.
Fluoroflow-HSA Pleated Membrane
All-fluoropolymer construction with more effective filtration area for increased flow. Available in 0.03, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.45 and 1.0 µm sizes.
Pre-Sputter Etch & Clean
Parker provides clean, low metal extractable hydrophilic filters for DI water and dilute acids which are used to clean the media disks. These filters wet out easily with the process fluid and efficiently retain the sub-micron particles which could cause defects and result in lower yield.
Clariflow-E Pleated Membrane
Unique hydrophilic PES mirrored anisotropic membrane and high-purity, all polypropylene support structure. Available in 0.02, 0.04, 0.1, 0.2, 0.45, 0.65 and 0.8 µm sizes.
Clariflow-E Select Pleated Membrane
Unique hydrophilic PES mirrored anisotropic membrane and high-purity, all polypropylene support structure with innovative SELECT pleating technology for increased flow. Available in 0.02, 0.04, 0.1 and 0.2 µm sizes.
Clariflow-WE Pleated Membrane
Hydrophilic PES membrane and high-purity, all polypropylene support structure. Available in 0.04, 0.1, 0.2, 0.45 and 0.65 µm sizes.
Polyflow Pleated Depth Filter Cartridge
Thermally bonded virgin all-polypropylene absolute-rated depth filter for pre-RO. Available in 0.06, 1.2, 2.5, 5.0, 10.0, 20.0 and 40.0 µm sizes.
Wash Process
Throughout the hard disk drive manufacturing process, wash steps are required to provide particle free substrates on the head, disk, slider, and even the storage case in the final assembly process. DI water, hot DIW, and DIW with surfactants are used in critical post-polish and post-sputter wash steps.
Parker has filters ideally suited to fit all recirculated or single-pass spray HDD wash applications.
Proflow-HE Pleated Membrane
Chemically-resistant polypropylene structure with hydrophilic PTFE membrane. Ideal for most dilute acids and bases. Available in 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, 3.0 and 10.0 µm sizes.

Hydrophilic PES membrane and high-purity, all polypropylene support structure. Available in 0.04, 0.1, 0.2, 0.45 and 0.65 µm sizes.
Clariflow-E Select Pleated Membrane
Unique hydrophilic PES mirrored anisotropic membrane and high-purity, all polypropylene support structure with innovative SELECT pleating technology for increased flow. Available in 0.02, 0.04, 0.1 and 0.2 µm sizes.
Clariflow-E Pleated Membrane
Unique hydrophilic PES mirrored anisotropic membrane and high-purity, all polypropylene support structure. Available in 0.02, 0.04, 0.1, 0.2, 0.45, 0.65 and 0.8 µm sizes.
Ultra-Pure Water
Parker's all-polypropylene depth filters provide pre-RO protection from large particles in hard disk drive manufacturing processes. In addition, our line of Clariflow filters are rated down to 0.02 microns and are instrumental in ensuring the DI water, used for the most critical point-of-use applications, is free of yield limiting particles.
