3M™ Front Sole Grounder -FSG1M

Front Sole Grounder

this grounder provides improved floor contact by covering ball of the foot with conductive rubber. two d-ring's
and a clasp provide a comfortable and secure fit. this quality grounder is tested for electrical performance
and is lot numbered for QC traceability. 3M uses time-tested construction techniques including computer
controlled stitching, riveting, die cutting, and heat cutting to ensure consistent performance.

Standards

Meets the requirements of AnsI/esd s-20.20, eIA 625, MIl-std-1686, and MIl-HdBK-263.

How Foot Grounders Work

Foot grounders discharge static from a person to ground by connect­ing the person to a grounded walking surface. A conductive ribbon
placed inside the wearer’s shoe or sock makes electrical contact with
the skin through perspiration. the ribbon is joined to a resistor which
limits current should accidental exposure to electricity occur. the other
end of the resistor is joined to a conductive sole. this sole contacts a
grounded esd floor mat or esd flooring system. Foot grounders must
be worn on both feet to maintain ground contact while walking.
