Pink Antistatic Lay Flat Tubing





Pink film, also commonly known as antistatic lay flat tubing. This type of ESD packaging material is used to safely wrap non-electrostatic-sensitive products in the electronics industry, such as instruction manuals and nuts and bolts. The film is typically made from durable polythene and coated with an antistatic coating, allowing it to come into close proximity to static-sensitive electronics without causing damage.




One distinguishing characteristic of pink film is its red-tinted polythene color, often described as pink. This color helps inform individuals working in an Electrostatic Protected Area (EPA) that the material can be safely used. It is important to note that pink antistatic film does not provide protection against electrostatic charge (ESD).




Antistatic film is designed to eliminate static charge build-up, reducing the risk of ESD damage and creating a static-free work environment. Static charge build-up occurs when two surfaces come into contact and create friction, a phenomenon known as tribocharging. By reducing the risk of static damage to electronic components, businesses can prolong the performance and lifespan of their valuable assets, ultimately saving money.




Most pink lay flat tubing is 75 microns thick, providing good scratch protection for the contents inside. The film has a typical surface resistance of less than 10^(10) Ohms per meter, further ensuring the safety of the packaged items.




Products can easily be placed in the tubing and cut to size before sealing, allowing for a customized fit and minimizing waste. If you are seeking a cost-effective solution for packaging non-static-sensitive items, pink antistatic lay flat tubing is an excellent choice.
