This LisStat™ laminate is formed around the front edge of the work surface and 3" under the front edge.
The ESD LisStat™ laminate is bonder over the aluminum, making the entire top and bottom dissipative from every point.
The tubular steel frame is factory attached to the top by a series of screws.
What is included with an ESD system?
Special Top Features:
1. We Use LisStat™ ESD Laminate: Uses a design which controls the static dissipation rate to meet all ANSI/BIFMA and Federal GSA standards. This laminate carry the static charge across a layer of carbon which is buried just below the surface color layer.
Some of our competitors still use brands of ESD laminate which are made conductive by dipping conventional laminate sheets into a chemical bath, then dry the sheet.
These sheets come from the laminate dipper with a label which, to paraphrase it, reads Do not clean with any products containing water, ammonia, chlorine, or soap. We have replaced hundreds of competitors tops which have lost their ESD properties over time, even though they followed all the manufacturer instructions.
2. We use ESD laminate on the top and all four edges. As surprising as it sounds most other companies either use a non-dissipative rubber strip or use nonconductive laminate on the edges. If you already have a competitors ESD bench, you can spot this by checking to see if the laminate looks identical in color, thickness and texture. If it looks different, check the surface resistivity. It won't be the same.
3. Aluminum underside: We are the only bench manufacturer to use an aluminum sheet to seal the underside of our tops and to assure conductivity. While other makers either leave the core particleboard uncovered on the bottom, paint the bottom or apply a brown paper sheet, we use the only material which completely seals out moisture, and which is 100% conductive. This is important too, as this moisture is the only reason tops warp, and leaving a nonconductive bottom sheet can cause problems in sensitive work areas.
4. Multiple grounding systems: While other brands of benches tout a very special bolt used to ground the surface of the laminate to their grounding system wires, we have eliminated this bolt (And the wires). Because all BenchPro™ bench tops are designed with a full 180 degree laminate radius on the front edge, and because the front laminate wraps under the top of the frame, we simply placed the frame where the fastening screws go through the laminate. This directs the static charge directly into the frame, which is in turn grounded by two conductors we provide for earth grounding purposes. All ESD shelves have the same grounding system.
The two front legs have banana jacks on their front edges to accept wrist strap connectors. The back of the frame has two mounting lugs to attach the two grounding wires which are included with the system. You will find this double system in evidence on every ESD bench and accessory we make.
BenchPro™ ESD work benches are not connected electrically to the floor. We use insulated floor glides so static charges will pass only through the grounding system provided, and so inadvertent charges on the floor can not pass up to the work surface and operator.
The unique characteristics of LisStat™ Static Dissipative Laminate make it ideally suited for a variety of sensitive electronic production applications.
LisStat™ Static Dissipative Laminate Sheets are designed for permanent lamination to work station surfaces.
LisStat™ meets and surpasses all standards for electrical dissipation as they apply to static control, even at low humidity levels. These standards include ANSI/BIFMA, ESDI, GSA and many others.
LisStat™ Static Dissipative Laminate Sheets are designed for permanent lamination to work station surfaces.
All BenchPro™ ESD benches are only available with ergonomic contoured front edges. This way, the ESD laminate conducts the static charges all the way to the steel frame. The steel frame has two wrist strap jacks mounted on the top of the two front legs for convenience. BenchPro™ also provides one grounding wire to take the static from the frame to either an adjoining bench or to ground.
To guarantee a static clear work area, all BenchPro™ ESD bench top have their edges laminated with the same static control laminates as used on the top, while the underside of the tops have a laminated solid aluminum sheet.
Workbench WarrantyBenchPro™ has been producing the nation's strongest, longest lasting ergonomic workbenches since 1987. We are so sure our products will perform properly, we offer the following warranty: BenchPro™ benches, options and accessories are warranted to the original purchaser for 25 - years. This includes every component and every function. Exceptions: Workbenches used in multiple shift operations shall have the warranty prorated accordingly. Hydraulic bench lift - system components are warranted for ten - years. All lighting products are warranted for ten - years. For Service: Call BenchPro™ at 888-700-9888 or email info@benchpro.com. Customers only have the obligation to report the problem and BenchPro™ will take care of the rest. BenchPro™ will either refund the entire purchase price including freight (if by our freight carrier) and tax (if any) or replace the product or component that is defective at our discretion. Product Returns:
As we make all orders from base materials, and do not carry an inventory, we charge a "restocking fee" on unneeded and unwanted, yet ordered products. We also charge a restocking fee for products ordered but cancelled after the product is built. This is to cover our repackaging and handling, and remarketing. Customers pay the cost of freight both ways. Restocking fee schedule:
A. Kennedy, Roosevelt Series in standard sizes and colors will be charged 15%.
B. Dewey, Harding, Jefferson, Grant and Adams Series in standard sizes and colors will be charged 30% restocking fee.
C. Any bench in a custom size or color will be charged a 50% restocking fee, as we will have a difficult time reselling them without a large discount.
D. Custom design and non-catalogue items are non-returnable.
E. No product shall be returned after 60 days.
No return of defective product is ever required. (We ask for an electronic photo in cases where we have not seen the problem before).
Freight Damaged Product:
USA freight regulations make freight companies’ drivers responsible for checking shipments for damage when they pick up. Our customers are responsible for checking for damage when receiving and signing for a shipment. We state this on our acknowledgment and invoice in case customers are not aware of the procedure. Once the product is in your facility, we assume you mishandled the product.
Most carriers give us 5 days after delivery to notify them of damage, and will cover the cost of replacements and the freight. If you have a problem, call or write and we will notify the carrier, then replace the product at no charge to you.
From the lawyers: In no case shall BenchPro™, its distributors, employees, related divisions, and other entities be responsible for any direct, consequential or indirect damage caused by the use, inability to use, or incorrect use of our products. Our liability shall be limited to replacement of product or a full refund.
Litigation:
All claims and/or disputes relating to the sale, quality and/or use of our products are to be settled by binding arbitration in the state of California, county of San Diego or any other location mutually agreeable to both parties.
Destruction: Dangerous products should not be put into open waste disposal system until they have been made unserviceable, so no third party can claim them and be injured. (This includes wobbly tables or chairs.)

What is the best work surface height for me?
You can order your benches at any work surface height without incurring additional cost, or select the lowest height you believe useful and add either our optional adjustable legs, our electric lift system or our crank-up system.
We have seen orders for almost every work surface height. Some Customers want to sit down and work, others want to stand. Here are some thoughts that may be of assistance:
1. Desks are 30" high.
2. Desk chairs usually have a seat cushion height adjustability range of around 17" to 22".
3. Work surfaces should never be more than 9" higher than the top of the chair range. Conclusion: If you need a work surface higher than 31", you will need a taller chair.
4. Taller chairs usually have a foot ring and a wider base. (Adjustable foot rings are critical as employees come in all sizes too.)
5. Our taller chairs have a seat cushion height adjustability range of 22" to 32". (Some brands have ranges of only 5" or 8".)
6. We do not recommend chairs be used at benches with work surfaces of 37" and higher, as some employees will attempt to "climb" the chair, and could be injured when the chair rolls or tips.
