SLIM-TRODE reusable Ag-AgCl biopotential skin electrodes are designed for applications requiring light weight and smaller electrodes.
     To keep the overall dimensions to a minimum, no electrode housing is employed. The back of the sensor element is encapsulated in a hard epoxy coating; leaving only one side and the rim exposed for contact.
     An insulated, high quality wire is permanently connected to the electrode and encapsulated with epoxy (the entire assembly is waterproof).
      The sensor element is made with a 1 mm thick, solid Ag-AgCl sintered disc. Overall thickness is approximately 3 mm.
     Electrodes can be applied with or without gel to the skin. However, Tac Gel (E447) is recommended because it provides the benefit of a gel bridge, along with sufficient adhesive to hold the electrodes in place. For more secure attachment, Macroporous Surgical Tape (E456) is recommended.

WIRES Slim-Trode standard wires are 1 m (40") long, unshielded and insulated (shorter and longer wires are available). These wires are very strong, flexible and fatigue resistant. Offered in white, green, brown, red, black, blue and gray. Two wire types are available for most  models:

Light Duty wire: 1 mm diameter (L). Light weight and very pliable.

Heavy Duty wire: 1.7 mm diameter (H). Exceptionally strong and durable.       Also available with shielded leads.
