ESD Mat StarTech.com SM-ANTI-STATIC-MAT Anti Static Table Mat 11x18in

The StarTech.com SM-ANTI-STATIC-MAT is an anti-static desk mat sized approximately 11.8 x 18.1 in (30 x 46 cm) designed to protect electronic components and devices from electrostatic discharge (ESD). Made of two-layer PVC with a total thickness of 0.08 in (2 mm), the mat meets the ANSI/ESD S4.1 surface resistance standard and includes a coiled, detachable grounding cable (6.6 ft / 2 m) and a snap-on clip for easy connection to common grounding points. Its flexible construction allows rolling for compact storage or transport, while the textured bottom layer improves surface adhesion.

Advantages

The mat provides ESD protection compliant with ANSI/ESD S4.1 and integrates a detachable 2 m coiled grounding cable for straightforward grounding. Its two-layer PVC construction and textured underside ensure durability and stability on work surfaces. The flexible material permits rolling for compact storage or portability, and the snap-on clip simplifies attaching or removing the grounding wire. The product is supported by a 2-year StarTech.com warranty and access to 24/5 technical assistance.

Suitable for

• Electronics repair and assembly workbenches
• Manufacturing or repair facilities handling sensitive components
• Data centers and IT service areas requiring ESD protection
• Hobbyist workstations for circuit board or component handling

How to use

Unroll the mat on a clean, flat work surface and position it so the textured underside contacts the table for stability. Attach the snap-on clip of the coiled grounding cable to the mat’s grounding point, then connect the cable to a verified earth ground or common grounding point. Place electronic components and devices on the mat while performing work to reduce the risk of electrostatic discharge. Clean the mat with a recommended anti-static mat cleaner to maintain ESD performance and avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the PVC surface.

Usage recommendations

Use the mat in conjunction with other ESD controls—such as wrist straps, grounded tools, and ESD-safe storage—to achieve comprehensive protection. Verify the grounding connection regularly and follow facility ESD procedures when handling sensitive components.
