iFixit Anti-Static Wrist Strap

Safeguard your electronics from electrostatic damage with the iFixit Anti - Static Wrist Strap. This essential tool protects your devices from accidental ESD damage during repairs. It's custom - made by iFixit for 'American' sized wrists, unlike most Asian - made anti - static wrist straps that often fail our ergonomics test. Features include a 0.75' x 8' unstretched elastic band with an adjustable buckle, made of a polyester/stainless steel weave. The coiled cord is 6 feet (2 meters) long with a 1 M(Ohm) resistance.

Using this anti - static wrist strap is easy. First, put the strap around your wrist and adjust the buckle to fit comfortably. Then, connect the cord to a grounded object. While working on sensitive electronics, keep the strap on to prevent static charge build - up. Make sure the connection to the ground is always secure. When you're done using it, store it in a dry place. Avoid pulling the cord too hard or getting the strap wet. Periodically check the cord and buckle for any signs of wear and tear.
