How StratoGrey Technology Works
StratoGrey bags feature buried metal construction that creates a true Faraday cage around contents. This dual-protection design shields against both electrostatic discharge and electromagnetic interference. Unlike surface-metallized bags, the buried metal layer provides consistent shielding performance even after multiple uses and handling cycles. The semi-transparent material allows visual identification of contents without opening, maintaining the protective environment while enabling inventory management.
Commercial Applications
Electronics manufacturers rely on 18x24" static shielding bags for protecting large PCBs, backplanes, and assembled modules during production flow. Data center operations use this size for server motherboards, RAID controllers, and network interface cards. Computer repair facilities and refurbishers package graphics cards, power supplies, and complete system boards. Aerospace and defense contractors specify StratoGrey construction for mission-critical components requiring verified ESD protection with full chain-of-custody documentation.
Key Features
- Faraday Cage Protection: Buried metal layer provides complete electrostatic shielding for sensitive components
- Amine/Amide-Free Interior: Will not corrode polycarbonate surfaces or cause outgassing that damages sensitive electronics
- Seal Top Closure: Reclosable design allows repeated access while maintaining protection between uses
- 3/8" Side Seal: Reinforced seal construction ensures packaging integrity during storage and handling
- Translucent Material: Easy identification of contents without compromising the protective barrier
Common Questions
Q: What's the difference between static shielding bags and anti-static bags?
A: Static shielding bags like StratoGrey create a Faraday cage that blocks external electrostatic fields from reaching contents. Anti-static bags only prevent charge generation from the bag material itself. For ESD-sensitive electronics, shielding bags provide significantly better protection.
Q: Can these bags be reused?
A: Yes, the seal top closure allows multiple openings and reclosures. Buried metal construction maintains shielding integrity through repeated handling. Inspect bags for punctures or tears before reuse.
Q: What size components fit in 18x24" bags?
A: This size accommodates items up to approximately 17x23" with adequate clearance. Common uses include full ATX motherboards, large server boards, multiple graphics cards, and assembled electronic subassemblies.
