5x8 StratoGrey Static Shielding Bags - ESD Protection for Sensitive Electronics
StratoGrey static shielding bags from LK Packaging deliver premium electrostatic discharge protection for sensitive electronic components. The 5x8 inch size accommodates memory modules, small circuit boards, IC chips, and other ESD-sensitive parts requiring professional-grade protection during storage and handling.
Specs: 5 x 8" | Buried metal construction | Semi-transparent | 3/8" side seal | Seal-top closure | 1,000/case | Amine-free
How StratoGrey Technology Works
StratoGrey bags utilize buried metal construction to create a true Faraday cage around contents. This double-layer protection blocks both static discharge and electromagnetic interference from reaching sensitive components. Unlike simple anti-static bags that only dissipate surface charges, static shielding bags actively block electrical fields from penetrating the package—critical protection for high-value electronics.
Commercial Applications
Electronics manufacturers use these 5x8 StratoGrey bags for packaging RAM modules, SSDs, graphics cards, and populated circuit boards. Computer repair shops rely on them for safe storage of customer components. Distribution centers handling electronics inventory maintain stock of this size for small-to-medium components. The amine-free interior makes these bags safe for polycarbonate surfaces found in optical drives and display components—no corrosion or outgassing concerns.
Key Features
- Faraday Cage Protection: Buried metal layer blocks static discharge and EMI from reaching contents
- Amine-Free Interior: Safe for polycarbonate—no corrosion or outgassing on sensitive surfaces
- Semi-Transparent Material: Easy identification of contents without opening the bag
- Reusable Design: Seal-top closure allows multiple access cycles for work-in-progress storage
- 3/8" Side Seal: Robust seam construction maintains shielding integrity during handling
Common Questions
Q: What's the difference between anti-static bags and static shielding bags?
A: Anti-static bags (pink or blue) only dissipate surface charges. Static shielding bags like StratoGrey contain a metal layer that creates a Faraday cage, actively blocking electrical fields from reaching contents. For high-value components like memory and processors, shielding bags provide superior protection.
Q: Can I reuse StratoGrey bags?
A: Yes. The seal-top closure allows repeated opening and resealing. Bags remain effective as long as the metal layer isn't punctured or creased. Inspect for holes or damage before reuse with sensitive components.
Q: What size components fit in a 5x8 bag?
A: The 5x8 size fits components up to approximately 4x7 inches with room for fold-over closure. Common fits include laptop RAM modules, M.2 SSDs, small Arduino boards, and individual IC chips with ESD foam.
