Botron B3123 Dissipative Three Layer .12 in Rubber ESD Mat 3 ft x 2 ft x 0.12 in with Hardware and Grounding
Botron B3123, Dissipative Three-Layer Rubber ESD Mat Kit, 24 in x 36 in x 0.12 in, with Hardware and Grounding
The Botron B3123 is a ready-to-use 3-layer rubber ESD workstation mat kit — a pre-cut 24″ × 36″ dissipative rubber mat packaged with grounding hardware for immediate workstation setup. The 3-layer rubber construction delivers a dissipative top surface for safe component contact and a conductive bottom layer for reliable grounding, making it a practical choice for electronics assembly, inspection, and rework stations that need a compliant ESD worksurface without the complexity of roll cutting and hardware sourcing.
What’s Included
- 1 × Botron 3-layer rubber ESD mat, 24″ × 36″ × 0.12″

Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in the Botron B3123 mat kit?
The B3123 kit includes a pre-cut 24″ × 36″ 3-layer rubber ESD mat (0.12″ thick), a common point ground cord, and grounding hardware. Everything needed to set up a grounded ESD workstation is included — no additional hardware required.
How does the Botron B3123 compare to the SCS 770074 rubber mat kit?
Both are rubber ESD mat kits with grounding hardware included. The SCS 770074 uses R3 Series nitrile rubber (24″ × 48″) with published lot traceability, non-humidity-dependent performance data, and compatibility documentation for continuous workstation monitors. The Botron B3123 is a compact 24″ × 36″ kit suited for smaller workstations and secondary work areas. Both comply with ANSI/ESD S20.20 worksurface requirements.
Does the Botron B3123 comply with ANSI/ESD S20.20?
Yes. The B3123 3-layer rubber mat meets ANSI/ESD S20.20 worksurface requirements and is tested per ANSI/ESD STM4.1. The dissipative top layer and conductive bottom layer provide the resistance profile required for ESD-protected area compliance.
What size workbench does the Botron B3123 fit?
The 24″ × 36″ pre-cut size is well-suited for compact workbenches, inspection stations, and secondary work areas where a full 24″ × 48″ mat is not needed. For standard single-operator workbenches, consider the SCS 770074 (24″ × 48″) or SCS 8214 (24″ × 48″) kits.
Is rubber better than vinyl for an ESD mat?
Rubber ESD mats generally offer better chemical resistance, greater durability against abrasion and soldering iron contact, and more stable electrical performance across varying humidity conditions compared to vinyl mats. Vinyl mats are a cost-effective option for light assembly and inspection; rubber mats are the preferred choice for active soldering, rework, and high-compliance EPA workstations.
