Can anti-static shoes and anti-static shoe covers be used interchangeably?


The factory's measures for static electricity prevention are very strict, and employees must wear anti-static shoes or anti-static shoe covers during work. This can effectively discharge static electricity. But many employees are not sensitive to anti-static shoes, because their comfort can not be compared with everyday casual shoes. Can I use these two antistatic products interchangeably? If so, under what circumstances can an anti-static shoe cover replace an anti-static shoe?

The fabric of the anti-static shoe cover is the same as the anti-static clothing. It is a 5mm stripe or mesh anti-static cloth. It can be used repeatedly after cleaning, which is more economical and practical than the one-time shoe cover.


The anti-static shoe cover has good anti-static and dust-proof effect, and can be applied to the dust-free environment of ten to ten thousand, which can prevent the damage of ESD sensitive components caused by static electricity of the human body, and can prevent the dust from escaping from the bottom of the shoe and pollute. dust-free workshop.


Compared with anti-static shoes, anti-static shoe covers are more flexible to use, but the anti-static index is slightly worse, so shoe covers can be used instead of anti-static shoes in places with low static performance.
