Description: Durable and highest quality ESD mat set including cables, wrist strap and grounding cord have superior heat, chemical and wear resistance. Excellent performance is available thanks to best quality 2-layers material dedicated for the professional industrial usage. Features two layers rubber where the top layer is dissipative and the bottom layer is conductive.
Two layers, oil, grease and solvent resistant, high temp resistant, acid proof and knife cut proof material with excellent wear hardness.
Parameters:
- thickness: 2mm
- RTG = 10^6 – 10^8
To get best price from supplier we ordered with local friends higher amount of the sets so I have rest of them available for sale.
The price is $25 for complete set + $14 s/h worldwide (including the paypal fee, insurance, packaging). Paypal accepted.

ESD mats portable set for safe soldering - solution
in Electronics chit chat
Posted
Hi all,
After bad experiences during ham radios repairing and home electronics experiments
I decided to solve my ESD protection in the kitchen "lab".
I would like to share my experiences with ESD mats for safe, ESD protective
soldering as it can help to others. I looked for long time on the eBay and other
shops for possibility to purchase small portable ESD mats including the cables
to connect for same el. potential or directly to common ground.
All mats which I found were big and expensive or small but expensive or small,
not high quality just vinyl and expensive etc.
Requested parameters were: two layers, oil, grease and solvent resistant, high
temp resistant, acid proof and knife cut proof material.
After long time I returned back to Czech market where I found the company where
they has exactly what I looked for but unfortunately the mats was too big.
Standard size is 80cm x 160cm for high price dedicated for professional
industrial usage. So I tried to call them and after some negotiation they
promised to cut it for me to preffered size 40x60cm and install the cables and
bananas for ground connection.
We also reached after some phone calls negotiation an excellent price.
Parameters:
- thickness: 2mm
- RTG = 10^6 – 10^8
ESD Rubber Mats have two layers; the top one is a blue static dissipative rubber
layer laminated to a black conductive rubber bottom layer. Surface resistivity
of the top layer is 10^6 – 10^8 and bottom layer is 10^5 – 10^6. This ESD Rubber
material offers excellent resistance to oil, grease and most common solvent.
These ESD Rubber Mats are very light compared to single layer and three
layer mats.
After ordering and arrival at home I decided to make several tests:
Several oils, greases and different solvents and mat survived without any
damages.
The flare-up point and it seems to be higher than 1000 C which is corresponding
to almost 2000 F. (I was limited by temp sensors and thermometer over here)
The burning thru temperature and it survived 450 C for 2mins which is
corresponding to 850 F. (I was limited by my soldering station, hi)
The max of the temp without any noticeable damage of the top layer. It survived
200 C for 2mins which is corresponding to 400 F.
Finaly I tried to cut it using standard knife and make the hole thru using drill
and it proved very high resistance.
All these tests results are so great that I am really happy with this new ESD
mat and I am sure that it will make great job.
RESUME:
If You would like to get this ESD mats also then let me know OFF-LIST to
[email protected]
I am ready to help You with purchasing, repacking and shipping to you worldwide
as NON-profit help.
Hope it will help to some of You as same as to me with safe soldering in the
kitchen property...
Sorry for a bit longer message and bothering other people but I guess it can
help to many of us with ESD issue.
