Small pouch. Important job.
Break the relay-theft chain
Relay theft can happen when criminals amplify the wireless signal from a key inside your home. A properly closed Faraday pouch is designed to attenuate that signal.
The pouch contains it
The conductive lining helps prevent the fob's radio signal from travelling beyond the closed pouch.
Your key stays ready
Remove the fob when you need it and it works normally—no charging, pairing, or app required.
Designed for real life
Protection you will actually use
Compact enough for a pocket, handbag, drawer, or travel bag, the SteerShield Faraday Pouch makes signal-blocking storage part of your normal routine.
For best performance, put the fob in the lined signal-blocking compartment—not the outer storage slot—and close the flap fully.

Frequently asked questions
How does a Faraday pouch protect my car?
It blocks the wireless signal from your key fob while the fob is stored inside and the flap is closed. With no signal to capture, thieves cannot use a relay attack to unlock or start your car.
Will it stop my fob from working?
Only while the fob is inside the closed pouch. Take it out and your fob works normally.
Does it fit all key fobs?
The pouch fits most standard car key fobs. For best results, make sure the fob is in the correct pocket and the pouch is fully closed.
Do I still need a steering wheel lock?
A pouch blocks relay attacks, but pairing it with a visible steering wheel lock adds a physical deterrent for stronger, layered protection.
Note: For best results, make sure the key fob is placed in the correct pocket and the pouch is fully closed.
Good to know
Faraday pouch questions
How do I know the pouch is working?
Put the fob fully inside the lined pocket, close the flap, stand beside your vehicle, and try to unlock or start it. The vehicle should not detect the key. Test again periodically.
Which pocket should I use?
Use the conductive, signal-blocking inner pocket. Some pouches also have an outer storage slot that does not block signals. Close the flap fully after inserting the fob.
Will it fit my car key?
It is designed for most standard car key fobs. Very large key bundles can affect how fully the flap closes, so keep the pouch comfortably closed and test it with your vehicle.
Can I use it for a phone or multiple devices?
This pouch is sized for a car key fob. Overfilling it can prevent a secure closure and reduce performance. Use a correctly sized Faraday bag for larger devices.
Does a Faraday pouch last forever?
Shielding material can wear or crease with repeated use. Test the pouch regularly and replace it if your vehicle starts detecting the key while it is fully enclosed.
Does this guarantee my car cannot be stolen?
No security product can guarantee complete theft prevention. A Faraday pouch is one useful layer against relay attacks; combine it with good parking habits and a visible physical deterrent for broader protection.
