Small discharge, big damage

A static discharge you don't even feel yourself can already be enough to damage a component. Often such a part doesn't fail immediately but only weeks later, which makes the cause hard to trace. ESD gloves discharge the charge in a controlled way and are therefore the first link in an ESD-safe workplace.

Part of a bigger system

Gloves alone aren't enough: the floor, the workbench, the wrist strap and the shoes also need to be conductive. Also note that ESD is different from the antistatic requirement in EN 1149, which is about explosion risk.

Frequently asked questions

When do I need ESD gloves?

When working with circuit boards, chips and other static-sensitive components. A discharge you don't even feel yourself is already enough to permanently damage a component or, worse, only weaken it so it fails only months later.

Are ESD gloves also antistatic according to EN 1149?

Not automatically. EN 1149 is about preventing sparks in explosive environments; ESD standards such as IEC 61340 are about protecting electronics. If you work in an ATEX zone, check whether the glove explicitly complies with EN 1149.

What does 13, 15 or 18 gauge mean for gloves?

Gauge indicates how finely the glove is knitted. The higher the number, the more stitches and the thinner and more flexible the knit. A 13 gauge glove is a versatile middle ground, while 15 and 18 gauge are thinner and give more feeling in the fingertips. This is handy when assembling small electronic components.

Why are some ESD gloves sold in packs of 12 pairs?

Gloves are consumables that wear out quickly in a production or assembly environment, especially on the fingertips. That is why Portwest supplies some models as a multipack of 12 pairs, which is handy if you are equipping a team or replace gloves regularly. The product name indicates whether it is a single pair or a pack of 12 pairs.
