Firechief LithShield Fire Suppression Bag - Large (FLSB-L)

The Firechief® LithShield® Fire Suppression Bag provides a practical way to help contain the effects of lithium-ion battery thermal runaway.

Manufactured using layers of high-temperature-resistant quartz fabric, the bag is designed to help contain flames and projectiles while allowing smoke and gases to be released in a controlled way.

The Large bag measures 500 × 430mm and is suitable for battery-powered devices with a battery capacity of up to 100Wh.

A high-temperature-resistant zip and secure hook-and-loop flap help keep the bag closed, while the large pull loop makes the zip easier to close quickly when required.
