PROTEKTIVE PAK
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about PROTEKTIVE PAK from 3G Electric.
What are the dimensions and compatibility of the Protektive Pak ESD storage box lid (SKU 31AR57)?
The Protektive Pak ESD storage box lid (SKU 31AR57) measures 17 3/4 inches by 10 3/4 inches and is made of black cardboard. It is compatible with Protektive Pak models 37500, 37501, 37508, and 37509, as well as part numbers 31AR51 and 31AR56. This lid is designed to cover ESD static-control storage boxes, helping to maintain a controlled environment for static-sensitive components. It is a direct replacement or accessory for these models, ensuring a proper fit and continued ESD protection. When ordering, verify the model number of your existing box to ensure compatibility.
Are Protektive Pak ESD cardboard shelf bins made from recycled materials?
Yes, Protektive Pak ESD cardboard shelf bins, such as SKU 31AR34 and SKU 31AR35, are made from 100% recycled content. This makes them an environmentally conscious choice for ESD storage without compromising on static control performance. The bins are constructed from corrugated cardboard that is conductive, providing a safe path to ground for electrostatic discharge. The use of recycled materials does not affect the ESD properties, as the conductive coating or additive is applied to meet necessary standards. These bins are suitable for storing electronic components, parts, or assemblies in ESD-protected areas.
What is the overall length of Protektive Pak ESD shelf bins like SKU 31AR34 and SKU 31AR35?
Both SKU 31AR34 and SKU 31AR35 have an overall length of 18 inches. SKU 31AR34 has interior dimensions of 8 inches by 4.5 inches, while SKU 31AR35 has interior dimensions of 4 inches by 4.5 inches. The 18-inch length allows these bins to fit standard shelving units commonly used in electronics manufacturing and storage areas. The bins are not hangable and do not include dividers, but they can be used with optional dividers if needed. The length is measured from end to end, providing ample space for various small to medium-sized components.
Do Protektive Pak ESD shelf bins come with dividers?
No, Protektive Pak ESD shelf bins such as SKU 31AR34 and SKU 31AR35 do not include dividers. The bins are sold as standalone units. However, dividers may be available separately from Protektive Pak or other sources. If you require dividers for organizing components within the bins, you will need to purchase them separately. The bins themselves are designed to be stackable and can be used without dividers for bulk storage. For specific divider options, consult the manufacturer's catalog or contact 3G Electric for assistance in sourcing compatible accessories.
What does ESD conductive mean for Protektive Pak cardboard bins?
ESD conductive means that the material provides a low-resistance path to ground, allowing electrostatic charges to dissipate quickly and safely. Protektive Pak cardboard bins are designed to be conductive, typically with a surface resistance within a specified range that ensures charges flow to ground rather than building up and discharging through sensitive components. This is critical in electronics manufacturing to prevent damage to integrated circuits, transistors, and other static-sensitive devices. The conductive properties are achieved through additives or coatings in the corrugated cardboard. These bins should be used as part of a complete ESD control program, including grounding and personnel grounding.
Does 3G Electric supply PROTEKTIVE PAK products?
