Metal Expansion Wristband Jewel MagSnap, Adjustable 14 to 33 cm, Onyx, without Coiled Cord - Desco 09186

At an ESD workstation the operator must be reliably grounded through wristband and coiled cord, with a system resistance of < 3.5 x 10⁷ ohms per ANSI/ESD S20.20. The Jewel wristband 09186 connects magnetically to the MagSnap coiled cord. This eliminates the intermittent failures of traditional snaps and extends the life of the wrist strap. Supplied as the wristband only, the matching MagSnap coiled cord is sold separately.

Key benefits

• Reliable contact: magnetic MagSnap connection instead of a snap, with a consistent 0.45 to 2.26 kg release so the cord does not come off by accident yet frees safely under pull.
• Fits everyone: patented size adjustment from 14 to 33 cm circumference by sliding 1 to 10 links into the backplate.
• Good skin contact: backplate and inner links of 300 series stainless steel, interior resistance < 100 kilohms. Metal bands retain moisture on the skin and suit people with dry skin.
• Insulated exterior: links laminated with 0.05 mm polyphenylsulfone, > 5000 V RMS insulation per ASTM D149, exterior resistance > 1 x 10⁷ ohms, scratch resistant.
• Safe and traceable: UL listed (90P1C), date coded for tracking service life.

Applications

Personnel grounding at seated ESD workstations in electronics production, repair and laboratories. Connect the coiled cord to a ground point, never clip it to the edge of a dissipative mat.

Standards

Meets ANSI/ESD S20.20 and ANSI/ESD S1.1, tested per ANSI/ESD S1.1 or ESD TR53. Check the wrist strap with a tester before each use. Made in the USA.
