Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the Keystone 112HPI-XL beard cover and standard beard nets?
The 112HPI-XL is made from 100% nylon honeycomb material — more structured and higher-filtration than standard polypropylene beard nets. XL sizing accommodates larger beards with a more secure fit. The honeycomb construction provides better particle retention. For ISO-classified cleanrooms and pharmaceutical environments where facial hair contamination is a critical audit finding, the 112HPI-XL is the preferred choice over standard beard nets.
How does the SCS 770159 dual cup heel grounder work and how do I verify it is grounding properly?
The SCS 770159 fits inside the heel of the shoe with a conductive strap contacting the ESD floor mat or flooring. The dual cup design provides two contact points for improved contact resistance over single-cup designs. Verify grounding performance daily with a wrist strap and heel grounder tester — ANSI/ESD S20.20 requires operators to test personal grounding equipment at least once per day before beginning work in the EPA. Document test results in your ESD program records.
When should I use ACL Staticide anti-static wipes vs. standard IPA wipes?
ACL Staticide anti-static wipes contain a topical anti-static agent that leaves a residual film providing temporary static control after cleaning. Standard IPA wipes clean effectively but provide no residual static control. For ESD-sensitive workstations where static buildup is a concern between cleaning cycles, ACL Staticide wipes are the preferred choice.
Is Indium 8.9HF the same as Indium NC-SMQ92J?
No — 8.9HF is a lead-free SAC305 paste (96.5Sn/3Ag/0.5Cu, ~217°C melting point) for RoHS-compliant electronics. NC-SMQ92J is a leaded eutectic paste (63Sn/37Pb, 183°C) for non-RoHS applications. Both are no-clean, US-manufactured by Indium Corporation. Select based on your regulatory requirements.
