This anti-static wrist strap is great for electronic work and repair, especially delicate or ESD-sensitive work. Ground yourself while working on sensitive electronics to prevent static charge build-up!
The Anti-Static Wrist Strap features an elastic band with an adjustable buckle, ensuring a snug fit for all sizes of wrists. The wrist strap is designed by iFixit for folks with bigger wrists. Most anti-static wrist straps made for use in manufacturing throughout Asia are smaller and do not pass ergonomics tests.
The strap’s blend of polyester and stainless steel weave, along with a 6-foot coiled cord, ensures both durability and effective grounding for various electronic projects. Don’t forget you have to clip the cord to an Earth ground in order to be grounded!
