StratoGrey Static Shielding Bags 10x24 - Faraday Cage ESD Protection
StratoGrey 10x24 static shielding bags provide military-grade ESD protection for large circuit boards, electronic assemblies, and sensitive components. The buried metal construction creates a true Faraday cage, blocking both static discharge and electromagnetic interference. The reclosable seal top allows repeated access while maintaining protection—ideal for components that require inspection, testing, or multi-stage assembly processes.

ESD Protection Technology
Unlike basic anti-static bags that only prevent triboelectric charge generation, StratoGrey static shielding bags actively block external static discharges from reaching contents. The buried metal layer creates a continuous conductive shell—a Faraday cage—that safely routes electrical charges around the package exterior. This dual protection guards against both contact discharge and field-induced damage, meeting stringent MIL-PRF-81705 requirements for sensitive electronic packaging.
Applications
The 10x24 size accommodates larger electronic assemblies common in industrial and commercial applications. Server motherboards, industrial control boards, power supply units, and rack-mounted electronics fit comfortably with clearance for cushioning. Contract electronics manufacturers use these bags for work-in-progress storage between assembly stations. Repair depots and refurbishment operations rely on them for incoming inspection and outbound shipping of refurbished units. Data center operations stock this size for spare parts inventory and component rotation.
Key Features
- Buried Metal Faraday Cage: True static shielding blocks external ESD events—not just surface dissipation
- Amine/Amide-Free Interior: Safe for polycarbonate lenses, optical components, and corrosion-sensitive surfaces
- No Outgassing: Won't contaminate cleanroom environments or sensitive optical assemblies
- Semi-Transparent Material: Visual identification without opening—verify contents, read labels, scan barcodes
- Reclosable Seal Top: Repeated access without cutting or repackaging—ideal for multi-stage workflows
- 3/8" Side Seal: Reinforced seam integrity for handling and storage durability
Common Questions
Q: What's the difference between anti-static bags and static shielding bags?
A: Anti-static (pink) bags only prevent charge buildup from friction. Static shielding bags like StratoGrey have a conductive metal layer that blocks external ESD—a critical difference for truly sensitive components. If the item could be damaged by a nearby discharge (not direct contact), use static shielding.
Q: Are these safe for polycarbonate lenses and optical components?
A: Yes. StratoGrey uses an amine-free and amide-free interior that won't cause stress cracking in polycarbonate or leave residue on optical surfaces. The no-outgassing formulation is also cleanroom compatible.
Q: Can I reuse these bags?
A: The reclosable seal top is designed for multiple open-close cycles. As long as the bag isn't punctured or the seal isn't damaged, reuse is fine. Inspect for holes or tears before reusing with high-value components.
