Product Summary |
---|
The 3M Gel Wrist Rest Platform for Keyboard and Mouse is designed for those who want to reduce the upward bend at the wrist (i.e. wrist extension), with its associated risk of injury to the wrist and forearms. This often occurs when working with a conventional keyboard at a seated or standing workstation. Placed directly on the desk surface, the platform provides a base for the keyboard and the mousing area, with the gel wrist rest spanning the platform width. The wrist rest provides support beneath the palms when typing, keeping the forearms, wrists and hands in comfortable alignment. When placed beneath the heel of the hand, the gel wrist rest also helps to ensure comfortable alignment of the wrist and forearm when mousing.
Two sets of optional rubber feet are included with the platform. When attached beneath the front of the platform the feet create a negative tilt of either 5° or 10° to provide further insurance against wrist extension.
Note: A greater degree of negative tilt is often necessary to minimize wrist extension at standing workstations.
The gel-filled wrist rest is 25.5" wide, 0.25" thick, with a leatherette cover. The cover has an embedded antimicrobial treatment that inhibits bacterial growth. Included with the platform and wrist rest is a 3M Precise Mousing Surface (designed to improve optical tracking and preserve battery life). The mousing surface is repositionable and can be placed to the left or right of the keyboard.

Reduces Risk of Injury to the Wrist - The Gel Wrist Rest Platform for Keyboard and Mouse helps to relieve strain on the tissues of the hand, wrist and forearm by reducing the degree of wrist extension and, optionally, by creating a negative slope for the keyboard and mousing surface. (Note that to create a negative inclination, the optional rubber feet must be installed at the front of the platform.) Learn More About Wrist Extension
Protects Sensitive Pressure Points - The gel wrist rest prevents the underside of the forearms from resting against the hard edges of the desk top.
