Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) safe materials combine the mechanical properties of high-performance plastics with controlled electrical conductivity. Our precision manufacturing delivers ESD-safe parts that prevent damaging static electricity buildup in sensitive electronics manufacturing, aerospace applications, and medical environments where standard insulating plastics would create hazardous static charges.

We offer multiple grades of ESD-safe materials to meet specific resistivity requirements from antistatic (10^12 ohms) to fully conductive (10^4 ohms). These specialized materials prevent component damage, improve safety in explosive environments, and maintain cleanliness in controlled settings. Our most commonly machined ESD materials include ESD Acetal, ESD PEEK, and ESD Polycarbonate, each providing unique combinations of mechanical properties with static control.

Key ESD Materials We Machine

1. ESD Acetal: Carbon-free static dissipative copolymer ideal for clean room use with excellent bearing and wear characteristics. Surface resistivity of 10^9 to 10^11 ohm/square makes it perfect for disk drive fixtures and semiconductor handling.
2. ESD PEEK: Combines exceptional chemical resistance and high-temperature stability (up to 250°C) with reliable static dissipation. Ideal for semiconductor wafer handling, electronics manufacturing, and aerospace applications requiring both thermal resistance and ESD protection.
3. ESD Polycarbonate: Features permanent anti-static properties with excellent impact resistance and optical clarity. Perfect for equipment enclosures, access panels, static control shields, and viewports in electronics manufacturing and clean room environments.

Our precision-machined ESD components serve critical applications in semiconductor processing, electronics manufacturing, data storage, medical device production, and aerospace assembly. The electronics, medical device, and defense industries particularly value these materials for their reliable combination of static control and mechanical performance without compromising cleanliness or dimensional stability.
