Stainless Steel ESD Metal Wristband, Black, Medium, 4 mm Snap - Desco 2206

Fabric bands lose tension and conductivity over time, a metal band keeps the same fit and skin contact for years. Desco 2206 is an expanding stainless steel link band in size Medium for wrist circumferences of about 168 to 181 mm. Interior resistance is below 1 x 10⁵ ohms, while an insulative plastic cap on each link keeps the exterior above 1 x 10⁷ ohms.

Key benefits

• Reliable path to ground: worn wrist strap system below 3.5 x 10⁷ ohms per ANSI/ESD S20.20
• Stainless steel back plate with interior resistance below 1 x 10⁵ ohms, 360-degree contact
• Insulative plastic caps outside, above 1 x 10⁷ ohms, against unintended contact
• Expanding links (1.5 : 1), easy to put on and take off, long service life
• According to ESD Handbook TR20.20 often more effective than fabric for people with dry skin, as some moisture is kept underneath

Applications

Personnel grounding at heavily used ESD workstations, for operators with dry skin and wherever fabric bands wear out quickly. Check the complete wrist strap system with a wrist strap tester before each shift.

Standards

Meets the limits of ANSI/ESD S20.20, tested per ANSI/ESD S1.1 and ESD TR53.
