Arctic Hayes 5g White Smoke Cartridges – Tub of 10
Arctic Hayes 5g White Smoke Cartridges provide a simple and effective solution for professional smoke testing. Each 5g cartridge produces approximately 15m³ of dense white smoke with a smoke duration of around 30 seconds.
Arctic Hayes encapsulates each cartridge within a polycarbonate sheath. The cartridges come in a convenient resealable plastic tub of 10, making them easy to store between jobs.
The dense white smoke makes airflow easy to visualise. Arctic Hayes recommends these cartridges for testing air filters, fume hoods, air balancing and fans. They also suit other smoke-testing applications where a clearly visible smoke plume is required.

What Are White Smoke Cartridges Used For?
Smoke cartridges allow engineers to make otherwise invisible air movement easy to see.
Once activated, the cartridge produces a dense plume of white smoke. The movement of this smoke can help identify airflow direction and reveal how air moves through an area or system.
Arctic Hayes lists applications including:
- Air filter testing
- Fume hood testing
- Air balancing
- Fan testing
- Airflow visualisation
- Ventilation system checks
- Photography
- Special effects
Arctic Hayes also identifies smoke cartridges and pellets as suitable products for stove flue testing and other professional smoke-testing tasks.
Dense White Smoke for Clear Testing
Visibility plays an important role when carrying out a smoke test.
Each 5g Arctic Hayes cartridge generates approximately 15m³ of dense white smoke. This makes the movement of air easier to observe during testing.
The smoke lasts for approximately 30 seconds. This provides a useful testing period without requiring a continuously operating smoke generator.
Encapsulated Smoke Cartridge Design
Unlike a standard exposed smoke pellet, the PH030 uses an encapsulated design.
Arctic Hayes houses the 5g smoke composition within a polycarbonate sheath.
Encapsulated smoke products can provide greater smoke volumes for larger testing applications. Arctic Hayes also highlights the easy-grip design of its encapsulated smoke products.

Smoke Cartridges for Heating and Ventilation Professionals
Smoke products provide a practical method of visualising air movement during heating and ventilation work.

The tub of ten also provides a convenient quantity for engineers who regularly perform smoke tests.
Smoke Cartridges, Pellets or Smoke Sticks?
Different smoke products suit different testing requirements.
Smoke Cartridges
Encapsulated smoke cartridges provide a high volume of dense smoke. They suit applications where greater smoke coverage is required.
Smoke Pellets
Smoke pellets provide a compact solution for many general smoke-testing applications.
Smoke Sticks
Smoke sticks produce a narrow and controllable smoke stream. This makes them useful when checking smaller areas or observing precise air movement.
Smoke Matches
Smoke matches provide a short-duration smoke source for quick checks, including flue spillage and draught testing.
Arctic Hayes offers each of these formats as part of its professional smoke-testing range.
