SPROTEK ST-A612 Anti-Static Mat 50 x 60 cm

SPROTEK ST-A612 ESD Mat

The SPROTEK ST-A612 is a PVC anti-static mat measuring 50 x 60 cm designed to protect sensitive computer components from electrostatic discharge during assembly or repair. It includes a grounding cable to bond the work surface and the technician to a common ground point. Surface resistivity is rated at 10e7 ~ 10e10 ohm/m2 with a charge decay time below .03 sec. This mat suits hobbyists and technicians who need a reliable ESD-safe area for handling boards and parts.

Integration with grounding cable

The mat connects to earth via the supplied grounding cable, creating an equipotential zone that drains static charges away from components placed on its surface. It requires a verified ground point such as a grounded outlet or chassis connection to function correctly. The 50 x 60 cm footprint covers a typical bench section, leaving room for a motherboard tray, tools and small parts. Builders who need a larger continuous ESD surface or multiple isolated zones will find this single mat insufficient.

Sustained ESD performance

Under continuous use the material maintains its specified resistivity range and rapid charge decay, preventing charge accumulation during long service sessions. The PVC construction resists wear from repeated component placement and tool movement without degrading its conductive properties. The grounding cable remains attached throughout the work period, ensuring the path to earth stays intact. Technicians who require documented compliance with specific ESD standards not listed here should verify the mat meets those requirements independently.
