ESD safety shoe SL 60 blue 2.0 S2 SR, soft nubuck leather, width 12, black/blue - Atlas 46512

For workplaces without a nail hazard but with occasional wet, S2 is the right choice, and ATLAS lists the SL 60 blue ESD as S2 SR to EN ISO 20345:2022. The soft nubuck leather is tested for water repellency, and the alu-tec aluminium cap withstands 200 joules of impact and 15 kN of compression while weighing considerably less than steel.

What sets this model apart

• Charge dissipation first. ATLAS labels the shoe explicitly as an ESD version to DIN EN 61340-5-1 and guarantees a person-shoe-floor resistance below 100 megohms. The footwear standard itself only defines the antistatic band from 100 kilohms to 1000 megohms, so the ESD proof goes beyond it. In practice the wearer charge drains away in a controlled manner on the walk from the bench to the machine instead of building up on the body and destroying a component.
• S2 SR in plain words. S2 contains everything from S1, that is a closed heel area, energy absorption in the heel, antistatic properties and a 200 joule toe cap, and adds tested water penetration and low water absorption of the upper. A penetration-resistant midsole is not part of S2, which keeps the shoe lighter and more flexible. SR stands for the additionally proven slip resistance on tile with glycerine.
• Aluminium cap instead of steel. The alu-tec cap meets the same 200 joules and 15 kN as a steel cap, but weighs considerably less and conducts cold far worse. Over a full shift the saved weight adds up noticeably.
• Soft nubuck leather. ATLAS processes only carefully selected cattle hides. The soft nubuck leather moulds to the foot quickly and stays dimensionally stable without losing the water repellency S2 requires.
• MPU REBOUND SYSTEM and INNOFLEX. The sole complex combines the MPU REBOUND SYSTEM for gentle, fatigue-free walking with the INNOFLEX outsole concept that supports the wearer in every phase of movement.
• aktiv-X functional lining. The lining regulates moisture actively and makes the shoe dry quickly after the shift. It does not stain, is skin-friendly and abrasion-resistant.
• Also available extra wide. ATLAS already builds standard width 10 on a broad, foot-friendly last. The same model is also available in width 12 as the extra wide version, listed here as Atlas 46512.
• Approved for orthopaedic insoles. ATLAS lists the model as suitable for insole supply to DGUV rule 112-191. Staff with a prescribed insole therefore need no special purchase, the marking inside the shoe is decisive.

Areas of use

Electronics manufacturing and EPA workstations, test areas and laboratories, assembly and field service, warehouse and order picking, workshops without a nail hazard. Where penetration is likely, an S1P or S3 model belongs on the foot.
