Anti-static grip seal bags

Buy antistatic grip seal bags for a handy self-seal polythene bag to store and protect electronic components.

Anti-static grip seal bags are easy-to-use resealable bags that protect contents from the buildup of static electricity, thus providing excellent protection for delicate electrical components during storage or transportation. The bags can be opened and closed repeatedly using a simple squeeze-shut grip seal - or minigrip - that runs along the length of the bag opening, just like a regular grip seal bag. However, antistatic grip seal bags are made from special anti-static polythene that is pink in colour, which dissipates any electrical current or static electricity across the surface of the bag, thus protecting any delicate electrical items inside.

Grip seal bags are...

  • Small reusable plastic bags featuring a simple seal at the opening of the bag
  • Waterproof, dust-proof and dirt-proof
  • Very convenient for keeping contents dry, clean and protected from external contaminants like dust or dirt
  • Simple to use - just give the grip seal a squeeze between thumb and forefinger to close, or gently pull the two sides apart at the top to open
  • Strong, robust and can be used over and over and over again
  • Great at separating items and handy for storage and filing, even with unusually-shaped items
  • Incredibly versatile and suitable for a range of contents from small knick-knacks, like buttons or beads, to larger items - like documents or big balls of wool
  • Available in a range of sizes from 1.5” x 2.5” (38.1mm x 63.5mm) to 15” x 20” (381mm x 508mm)
  • Available in a range of styles or types, including plain, labelled, heavy duty, antistatic, black or coloured
  • Often referred to as gripper bags, grippa bags, minigrip bags, mini grip bags or self-seal bags

Grip seal bags - a simple guide

The primary feature of a grip seal bag is, unsurprisingly, a grip seal. This is the feature which distinguishes it from other plastic bags and gives the bag it's name.

The grip seal runs right across the opening of the bag, from edge to the other, with a plastic strip on either side of the bag. On one side is a 'male' plastic strip, comprising a single ridge of plastic. On the other side is a 'female' strip, which features two plastic ridges, placed very close together in parallel across the width of the bag.

When the seal is squeezed, the 'male' ridge slots perfectly inside the two parts of the 'female' ridge, thus forming a watertight seal across the bags opening and protecting the bag from moisture and other contamination.

The seal itself is simple to use and can be closed with just your thumb and forefinger. Hold the bag still in one hand and, with the thumb and forefinger of the other hand, gently squeeze one end of the seal until you feel the 'male' and 'female' strips join, then run your thumb and forefinger, still closed, across the length of the seal to close the bag. Simple!

To open, all you need to do is take hold of both sides of the bag, above the seal, with the thumb and forefinger of both hands (left side in left hand, right side in right hand) and gently pull apart. The 'male' and 'female' strips will come apart easily, leaving you to access the contents of the bag before reusing it.

This process can be repeated many times but, if you want to help prolong the life of your grip seal bag, take care not to yank the plastic too hard when opening, or you may rip the bag, causing it to lose its waterproof and contamination-proof integrity.

Grip seal bags - a size guide

Grip seal bag types

In its simplest form, a grip seal bag is a polythene bag used for storage and/or to keep contents dry and clean. However, a range of different types of grip seal bag are available, all of which offers these standard benefits, but each of which serves a slightly different and specific purpose.

These include the following:

Grip seal bags with labels - An exterior label, usually white, allows you to write the contents of the bag on the label to help with identification and provide a visual aide for filing purposes

Black grip seal bags - Regular grip seal bags but made from opaque black polythene, providing confidentiality of contents and an extra level of security

Coloured grip seal bags - Gripper bags made from different coloured polythene. Ideally bought in a set to provide simple colour-categorisation of contents when filing, making it easier to find items later

Extra tough grip seal bags - Heavy duty bags made from thicker, tougher, polythene than regular gripper bags. Ideal for sharp, pointy, heavy, jagged or awkwardly-shaped items, as more resistant to puncturing, tearing or ripping

Grip seal carrier bags - A shopping bag with a difference, as it features a grip seal along the top for added protection against the elements and a more professional look

Anti-static grip seal bags - Used to transport electrical components safely as they protect them from potential build-up of static electricity, which can cause damage to some items.

- The present invention relates to a pneumatically propelled duct motour for pulling a cable draw rope or the like through a duct. It can be view of as a pneumatically powered pig and can be used in pipes or the like, in addition to cable ducts. The duct motour of the present invention is not subject to "lock-up" at high pressure, and makes efficient use of the on offer pneumatic pressure and so is of a simplier building. In the present invention, the duct motour is configured to overcome alternative problems of prior art devices by feeding the compressed air along a hollow valve stem associated with the compressed air distribution valve. The distribution valve is not located between the gripper bags, so enhancing the efficiency of operation of the duct motour. Furthermore, this feature has the advantage that the valves controlling inflation of the gripper bag closest to the distribution valve is not continually below high pressure.
