Desco’s ESD inspection gloves are designed to be worn when handling ESD susceptible items. They are made with dissipative (1 x 10⁵ to < 1 x 10⁸ ohms) Thunderon fibers to reduce charge generation and bond to a grounded operator. Additional silicone free carrier yarn is made with Kevlar Kleen which helps to protect operator’s hands from cuts on circuit board edges, leads, and other sharp objects. The carrier yarn will also absorb sweat and oils produced by the operator’s hands to help prevent contamination. The seamless fine gauge knit is designed for all-day wear allowing easy hand movement and a high level of tactile sensitivity. Desco’s ESD inspection gloves may be laundered and will retain their ESD properties for 30 washings or approximately 1 year.

Additional Features:

• Absorbs oils and other contaminants produced by operator’s skin
• Seamless fine gauge knit
• Designed for all-day wear allowing easy hand movement and a high level of tactile sensitivity
• Non-scratch touchscreen compatible
• Allows wearer to operate touch screen monitors and other devices

A properly grounded operator can touch a charged ESD-sensitive device and a damaging ESD event can occur (Charged Device Model). Increasing the electrical path’s contact resistance is one way to control the speed of the discharge and reduce the possibilities of damage. A good way to accomplish this is by wearing static dissipative gloves.
