StratoGrey Static Shielding Bags 10x15 - Professional ESD Protection for Sensitive Electronics
StratoGrey 10x15 static shielding bags deliver industrial-grade ESD protection using buried metal construction that creates a true Faraday cage around your sensitive components. These bags are engineered for operations that handle circuit boards, semiconductors, and electronic assemblies where static discharge isn't just a nuisance—it's a product killer. The translucent gray material allows visual identification without opening, reducing handling and exposure risk.

How Buried Metal Shielding Works
Unlike surface-only anti-static bags, StratoGrey's buried metal layer sits within the bag structure, creating continuous Faraday cage protection on all sides. This construction shields contents from both direct electrostatic discharge and electromagnetic interference. The metal layer is fully encapsulated—never exposed—so it won't contact or contaminate sensitive surfaces. This is the same protection principle used in cleanroom and aerospace electronics packaging.
Commercial Applications
The 10x15 size handles mid-format circuit boards, memory modules, graphics cards, and assembled electronic components. Electronics manufacturers use these bags for work-in-progress storage between assembly stations. Repair facilities protect customer devices during service operations. Distribution centers and 3PL warehouses rely on static shielding for electronics inventory management. The amine-free interior makes these bags essential for facilities handling polycarbonate components, optical drives, and display assemblies where chemical contamination causes hazing or corrosion.
Key Features
- True Faraday Cage: Buried metal construction provides double protection—blocks both static discharge and ESD fields from reaching contents
- Amine-Free Interior: Safe for polycarbonate, optical components, and sensitive coatings that react to amine/amide compounds
- Zero Outgassing: No volatile emissions that could contaminate cleanroom environments or deposit on component surfaces
- Translucent Material: Semi-transparent construction allows content identification without opening the bag and exposing parts
- 3/8" Side Seal: Wide seal margin ensures package integrity during storage, shipping, and repeated handling
- Resealable Design: Open-top configuration allows multiple access cycles for parts that require repeated handling
Common Questions
Q: What's the difference between anti-static bags and static shielding bags?
A: Anti-static bags (pink poly) prevent charge generation on the bag surface but don't block external ESD events. Static shielding bags like StratoGrey contain a conductive metal layer that creates a Faraday cage, blocking both internal and external static discharge. For high-value electronics, shielding bags provide superior protection.
Q: Are these bags safe for polycarbonate lenses and components?
A: Yes. StratoGrey bags are specifically formulated amine-free and amide-free. These compounds, common in other ESD packaging, can cause stress cracking and hazing on polycarbonate surfaces. The amine-free interior won't damage optical components, display covers, or medical device housings.
Q: What size circuit boards fit in a 10x15 bag?
A: A 10x15 bag comfortably fits boards up to approximately 9x14" with minimal handling clearance. For boards that need cushioning or desiccant packets, size down to 8x13" maximum board dimensions.
