Chemtronics Foam ESD Swab, Polypropylene Handle, 71 mm, Static Dissipative, 500 Per Pack 41050ESD

The Chemtronics 41050ESD Foam ESD Swab is a highly engineered consumable designed to deliver efficient cleaning of sensitive equipment in static-controlled environments. With its anti-static properties, this swab eliminates the risk of damage from static electricity, making it essential for electronics manufacturing, laboratory, semiconductor, and cleanroom maintenance.

Each swab features a polypropylene handle made from a static dissipative plastic alloy. This material allows the handle to dissipate 99 percent of a 5,000 volt charge in under 2 seconds, safeguarding electronic components against ESD-related failures. The handle contains no additives, coatings, or surfactants, ensuring reliable functionality at any humidity level. It also offers superior resistance to solvents, even acetone, enabling thorough cleaning without deterioration.

The swab bud is constructed from high-quality foam, providing excellent absorbency and minimizing particle contamination. The foam bud is free of amines, silicones, and static dissipative coatings, making it suitable for applications where low ionic and nonvolatile residue are critical. Its surface resistivity (1010 ohms/sq) delivers rapid discharge, and it does not produce tribo-charge.

Chemtronics ESD Swabs are supplied in convenient bags of 500 pieces, each measuring 71 mm in length - a standard size for cleaning intricate and small assembly areas. Their performance is unaffected by humidity and is consistent across all environments, including cleanrooms and laboratories.

These swabs are widely used for cleaning delicate electronics, sensors, instrumentation, lab glassware, and areas requiring ESD protection. They are ideal for assembling, repairing, or maintaining microcircuits and printed circuit boards, and can be used with various solvents for removal of contaminants and residues.

Set contains one bag of 500 ESD foam swabs. Trade names include Coventry and Aqua-Prime. For more high-performance ESD accessories, foam swabs, and laboratory supplies from Chemtronics, explore the ESD Grounding Accessories category on EnvMart.
