Product Overview
The DESCO 2209 Disposable Wrist Strap is a disposable grounding strap made of non-woven material, designed to provide personnel grounding. The product has been tested and meets the required limits for ANSI/ESD S20.20 wrist strap systems according to ESD TR53 and is UL-listed (90P1).
Construction and Function
- Disposable strap made of white, spunbonded polyester non-woven materials.
- Hypoallergenic adhesive around the entire contact surface to minimize skin-to-band resistance.
- Black conductive Velostat™ strip as a path to ground with a nominal total resistance of 5 x 10^6 ohm (specified per ANSI/ESD STM2.1 and ESD TR53).
- Conductive copper foil at one end with water-based acrylic adhesive for connection to a grounding point or chassis.
- Built-in current-limiting resistor in the plastic band under the wrist section.
- Each unit is individually packaged in a clear printed polybag.

Technical documentation and additional product data can be found in the manufacturer's datasheet: See datasheet from the manufacturer.
Typical Applications
- Used for personnel grounding as a disposable strap for visitors in an ESD-protected area, as specified in the manufacturer's description.
- Suitable for shipping with ESD-sensitive items to provide grounding for personnel opening ESDS packaging and installing contents.
Safety and Limitations
- UL Listing 90P1 — rated for 250 VAC. The product is not recommended for use on equipment with an operating voltage above 250 VAC (stated in the manufacturer's documentation).
- WARNING: The ESD series does not reduce the risk of electric shock. Follow general safety precautions when working on electrical equipment.
