3M™ Heel Grounder Assembly HGC1M-ECG
Green Economy Heel Grounder
Cost effective but durable. A double life span, three layer sole, and 24 inch multi-strand ribbon make this
grounder a good choice when high volume grounder use and turnover are costing too much. Green hook and
loop provides visual assurance that heel grounders are being used. The elastic strap offers comfortable adjustability. 3M uses time-tested construction techniques including computer controlled stitching, riveting, die
cutting, and heat cutting to ensure consistent performance.

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.
