Description

Lightweight ESD coil cords from Bondline provide a strong connection to ground when used in combination with an ESD wrist strap and Earth Bonding Point. These antistatic coil cords are single moulded and 1.8m in length (6ft long) – an ideal length for working at workstations. The lightweight ESD coil cords are available with either ’10mm snap both ends’ or ’10mm snap to jack with a crocodile clip’. All snaps are fitted with a 1 meg-ohm safety resistor. The lightweight ESD coil cords are specifically manufactured for the safe grounding of operators working with ESD sensitive components to prevent the build-up of static discharge (ESD).

Lightweight ESD cords can be stretched and recoiled back to at least 85% of its original length, helping to keep a clear working area for efficiency and comfort. These lightweight ESD coil cords are a cost-effective option for grounding personnel at a workstation in ESD protected areas. The coil cords are polyurethane (PU) insulated and the ground end of the cord is moulded with single nylon material. The cords are compliant according to IEC-61340-5-1 International Standard and meet RoHS and REACH standards. Light blue and dark blue cord colours are available to order.
