Economy Heel Grounder
Standards
Meets the requirements of ANSI/ESd S-20.20, EIA 625, MIl-STd-1686, and MIl-hdBK-263.
Cost effective but durable. A double life span, three layer sole, 18 inch multi-strand ribbon, and a low price
make this grounder a good choice when high volume grounder use and turnover is costing too much. 3M uses
time-tested construction techniques including computer controlled stitching, riveting, die cutting, and heat cut-
ting to ensure consistent performance.

How Foot Grounders Work
Foot grounders discharge static from a person to ground by connect-
ing 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.
