Abstract

An adjustable metal antistatic bracelet having a metal-link expansion wristband. A metal connector channel connects the ends of said wristband together, there being an end flange at each channel end and which extends into a gap between lower links. At one wristband end, tangs hold down an endmost link so that the end flange remains in a gap. At the other end, different types of means operate selectively to hold the end flange in a gap. An insulating cover snaps onto the channel, and incorporates a grounding stud and means to electrically connect the stud to the channel.
