ESD Work Mat VELLEMAN AS15 – 70 x 100 cm antistatic workstation mat

ESD Work Mat VELLEMAN AS15 – 70 x 100 cm antistatic workstation mat provides a static-dissipative surface sized for small to medium electronics benches. The mat is intended to reduce the risk of electrostatic discharge when handling sensitive components during soldering, assembly and repair. Its 70 x 100 cm working area fits hobbyist stations, repair desks and compact professional workspaces where controlled static dissipation is required.

Advantages

The mat offers a stable, non-slip surface that helps to protect components from damage caused by accumulated static. Its construction promotes controlled grounding and static dissipation while maintaining a flat, heat-tolerant area suitable for routine soldering and component placement. The format is easy to position on workbenches and is compatible with wrist straps and grounding cords to create a practical ESD-safe workstation.

Suitable for

• Electronics assembly and repair work on benches and desks
• Soldering small PCBs and components
• Hobbyist projects involving static-sensitive parts
• Quality control and testing of electronic modules
• Small repair stations in service centers and schools

Key specifications

• Material type: antistatic, static-dissipative mat material
• Dimensions: 70 x 100 cm usable surface
• Surface: flat, non-slip finish suitable for component placement
• Thermal tolerance: suitable for routine soldering tasks (short-duration heat exposure)
• Compatibility: works with wrist straps and grounding cords to provide a grounded workstation

How to use

Place the mat on a clean, flat workbench surface and smooth out any folds so the mat lies evenly. Connect a grounding cord to the mat according to the grounding method recommended for your setup and attach a wrist strap to ensure the user is at the same potential as the mat. Position tools and components on the mat during soldering, assembly or testing to keep parts within the static-dissipative area. After work, store the mat flat or rolled without tight creasing to preserve its shape.

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the mat for cuts, heavy contamination or wear that could affect static-dissipative performance. Clean with a mild antistatic cleaner or a damp lint-free cloth; avoid harsh solvents and sharp objects. Use the mat together with proper grounding and personal ESD protection to achieve effective protection of sensitive electronic components.
