Red Standard Style Heel Grounder with D-Ring
Standards
Meets the requirements of anSI/eSd S-20.20, eIa 625, MIl-Std-1686, and MIl-hdBK-263.
3M improved the standard heel grounder by adding ul listing for safety, lot coding for traceability, and our tough,
conductive rubber sole that includes a nylon layer for durability. this grounder also features a d-Ring and elastic
hook and loop for full adjustability. Compliance verification is simplified by the bright red elastic strap. 3M foot grounders
are designed and manufactured for comfort, durability, and cost effectiveness. our grounders are ul listed for
safety and tested for electrical performance. 3M uses time-tested construction techniques including computer
controlled stitching, riveting, die cutting, and heat cutting 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.
