Chemtronics 80-2-5 Static-dissipative Soldering Spool

Product Description

The CHEMTRONICS 80-2-5 is a static-dissipative soldering spool designed to safely ground the soldering iron tip during ESD-sensitive assembly and rework operations. Constructed from copper, this spool measures 5 feet in length with a width of 0.06 inches, providing a low-resistance dissipative path that prevents electrostatic discharge from damaging sensitive electronic components. It is used by electronics technicians, PCB assembly professionals, and bench-level repair techs working in ESD-controlled environments. The compact form factor fits standard soldering station setups without adding clutter to the work area.

This static-dissipative spool is suited for use at ESD-protected workstations in electronics manufacturing, repair depots, and field service environments. It is appropriate wherever soldering operations are performed on ESD-sensitive devices such as microcontrollers, memory modules, and other static-sensitive PCB components. The 5-foot length gives technicians enough reach to connect the spool from the iron to a grounded surface or wrist strap ground point without strain.

Key Features

• Copper construction provides reliable static-dissipative conductivity
• 5-foot length accommodates most bench soldering station layouts
• 0.06-inch width fits standard spool connection points
• Helps protect ESD-sensitive components during soldering and rework
• Single-unit packaging for individual workstation use

Compatibility

Designed as an accessory for use with soldering stations in ESD-controlled work environments where a static-dissipative ground path from the iron tip is required.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by electronics technicians following ESD workstation setup procedures. Ensure the workstation is properly grounded before connecting the spool. The spool should be connected in accordance with IEC or ANSI ESD control program guidelines applicable to the facility. Do not use this spool as a substitute for a proper wrist strap or bench mat grounding system.
