Grounding snaps are used to connect a ground cord to a work surface static safe mat or a ESD floor mat. An antistatic floor mat or ground mat is one of a number of antistatic devices designed to help eliminate static electricity. It does this by having a conductive material embedded within the mat that collects the static.
How to Install Clinch Snaps
- Locate the safest and most convenient snap location
- Press the snap down on the top side until prongs puncture matting and are fully visible on the underside of the mat
- Bend the prongs of the snaps until flush against the underside of the mat
- Bend the prongs up to remove the snap from the matting
