## Summary description

StarTech ESD Heel Strap (ESD-HEEL-GROUNDER) is an adjustable antistatic heel grounder designed to provide reliable shoe/foot grounding on anti-static floors. It incorporates a 1 MΩ safety resistor and offers a resistance range up to 1,000,000 Ω. Suitable for ESD-protected areas, electronics assembly, test benches and cleanroom entry control to reduce static discharge risk.

## Long description

StarTech ESD Heel Strap is an adjustable antistatic heel grounder designed to protect sensitive electronics by discharging static electricity from the wearer to an anti-static floor. The strap includes a built-in 1 MΩ safety resistor and a 50 cm conductive ribbon that maintains skin contact to provide consistent grounding in ESD-controlled environments such as repair benches, assembly lines, and cleanrooms.
Advantages
The heel strap safely drains static buildup through a 1 MΩ resistor that limits current flow, reducing the risk of electric shock while protecting components from electrostatic damage. Its tetherless design and lightweight construction allow unrestricted movement across compliant anti-static flooring. The hook-and-loop fastener provides an adjustable fit for most low-profile shoe heels, making it easy to standardize grounding across teams and workstations.
Suitable for
Electronics repair and assembly workstations
Test benches and labs handling sensitive components
Cleanroom entry control and ESD-protected areas
When it may not be suitable
This heel strap requires anti-static or ESD-compliant flooring to establish a proper ground; without suitable flooring, the device cannot discharge static effectively. For full-body grounding or tasks requiring continuous connection to an earth-grounded point, wrist straps or grounded workbench solutions may be more appropriate.
Key specifications
Safety resistor: 1 MΩ (1,000,000 Ω)
Conductive ribbon length: 19.6 in / 50 cm
Compatible heel width: fits most shoe heels up to 3.3 in / 8.5 cm
Design: tetherless, lightweight, reinforced stitching for durability
Intended environment: anti-static / ESD-controlled floors, cleanrooms, labs
How to use
Wrap the hook-and-loop strap around the heel of the shoe, ensuring the conductive ribbon rests against the skin of the back of the heel. Adjust the strap for a snug fit on heels up to 3.3 in (8.5 cm) wide. Use both heel grounders (one on each shoe) for the most consistent grounding. Verify grounding by using appropriate ESD test equipment and ensure the floor surface is ESD-compliant before use.
What to consider before purchase
Requires ESD-compliant or anti-static flooring to function correctly
Designed for low-profile shoe heels up to 3.3 in / 8.5 cm wide
Not a replacement for full-body or wrist grounding in all workflows
Usage recommendations
Use the heel strap on both shoes for consistent grounding, regularly inspect the conductive ribbon and fastening for wear, and confirm proper operation with ESD testing equipment before handling sensitive electronics.
