Introducing RS PRO ESD protective matting. These mats are designed to help prevent damage to ESD sensitive items and assemblies from Electrostatic Discharge. During application, the mats drain static charge, ground the item and protect surfaces from wear. Where would you use these ESD mats? Anti-static matting should be laid out in the workshops or advanced laboratories for microelectronic industries such as electronic semi-conduct devices, electronic computers, electronic communication equipment and integrated circuits. • Great value ESD Bench Matting • Made from anti-static (conductive) and static- dissipative materials with synthetic rubber • Static Dissipative Layer • Conductive Layer • Static Dissipative Layer • All bench mats come with 10 mm studs in each corner • Surface resistivity >103 >105Ω2 • Resistance to ground RG - 107 to >109Ω • For grounding cords see stock no. 466-1687 typically Construction • A surface layer is a 1.25 mm thick static-dissipative layer • A middle layer is a 0.5 mm conductive layer • The bottom layer is a 1.25 mm thick static-dissipative layer Why is it important to be ESD safe? ESD safe mats help to create an ESD protected area (EPA). This is a defined space where all surfaces, objects, people and ESD Sensitive Devices (ESDs) are kept at the same electrical potential. This is achieved by using anti-static materials such as rubber. The mats can be used on your worktop bench or the floor. You can also use ESD safe gloves and ESD safe footwear to ensure optimum personal grounding and protection. It's important to create an EPA because electrostatic discharge can cause safety issues and damage your electrical components.
