Antistatic Wrist Strap

An antistatic wrist strap, also known as an ESD wrist strap, is a wearable device designed to safely dissipate static electricity from a person’s body to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD). It is commonly used in environments where sensitive electronic components, such as semiconductors or circuit boards, are handled.

1. Material:

   • The strap is typically made of conductive fabric or elastic with embedded conductive threads.
   • The grounding wire is insulated and features a clip or plug for connection to a grounded source.

2. Adjustability:
