What should never be used to attach documentation to ESD property?

When handling Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) property, it is crucial to maintain strict adherence to protocols that ensure the integrity and protection of the equipment. The correct choice is the method of attachment that involves any metal fasteners, such as staples.

Using staples or metal fasteners poses a significant risk because metal can interfere with the ESD-safe practices in place. Staples can create a potential for short circuits or unintended electrical pathways when used with ESD-sensitive components. Additionally, they can physically damage the items being documented, particularly if those components are sensitive to physical pressure or puncturing.

While other options like clips, rubber bands, sticky tape, glue, or pins may also have their own issues in terms of safety or practicality, they do not directly compromise the ESD protection measures as significantly as staples do. Therefore, avoiding metal fasteners is essential in maintaining a safe and efficient ESD management process.
