StratoGrey Static Shielding Bags 15x18 - Faraday Cage Protection for Sensitive Electronics
StratoGrey 15x18 static shielding bags deliver buried metal construction that creates true Faraday cage protection for electrostatic-sensitive devices. The seal top closure allows repeated access without compromising shielding integrity, making these bags ideal for electronics that require multiple handling cycles during manufacturing, testing, or service operations.
Specs: 15 x 18" | Buried metal construction | Semi-transparent | Seal top reclosable | 500/case | Amine/amide-free interior
Commercial Applications
The 15x18 dimension accommodates larger circuit boards, assembled PCBAs, laptop components, and industrial control modules. Electronics manufacturing facilities use these bags for work-in-progress storage where components move between stations. Service and repair operations rely on the reclosable design for storing customer boards during diagnosis and repair cycles. Data center technicians keep spare server components protected in these bags for quick deployment. Contract manufacturers use them for shipping finished assemblies to OEM customers who require verified ESD protection throughout the supply chain.
Key Features
- Faraday Cage Shielding: Buried metal layer provides continuous electrostatic protection that meets ANSI/ESD S541 requirements
- Amine-Free Interior: Safe for polycarbonate surfaces and sensitive optics - no corrosion or outgassing concerns
- Reclosable Seal Top: 3/8" side seals maintain integrity through multiple open/close cycles during production or service
- Semi-Transparent Material: Easy visual identification of contents without opening and potentially compromising protection
- LK Packaging Quality: Defect prevention manufacturing approach ensures consistent shielding performance
Common Questions
Q: What's the difference between static shielding bags and anti-static bags?
A: Static shielding bags like StratoGrey provide active Faraday cage protection using buried metal construction - they block external electrostatic fields from reaching contents. Basic anti-static (pink poly) bags only prevent charge generation from the bag itself but don't shield against external discharge events.
Q: Can I reuse these bags for ESD-sensitive parts?
A: Yes, the seal top design supports multiple use cycles. Inspect for punctures, tears, or contamination before reuse. The shielding remains effective as long as the buried metal layer is intact. Most facilities get 3-5 uses per bag in controlled environments.
Q: Why does amine-free matter for electronics packaging?
A: Amines and amides can cause stress cracking in polycarbonate components and corrode certain metal contacts over time. StratoGrey's amine-free interior is essential for optical drives, display components, and any parts with polycarbonate housings or lenses.
