Industrial Applications
The 6 mil thickness makes these bags ideal for demanding industrial environments. Automotive manufacturers use them to package machined parts, castings, and assemblies with sharp edges or burrs. Machine shops rely on 6 mil bags for protecting precision components during storage and transit. Hardware distributors package heavy fastener kits, brackets, and mounting hardware without risk of puncture. Electronics manufacturers protect circuit boards and metal chassis from moisture and contamination during warehouse storage.
Key Features
- Maximum Puncture Resistance: 6 mil thickness provides over 3x the impact strength of standard 2 mil bags—handles sharp edges and heavy parts
- Superior Tensile Strength: Engineered LDPE delivers twice the tensile strength of traditional polyethylene for reliable load-bearing
- Heat Sealable: Create tamper-evident closures or maintain part cleanliness with standard heat sealing equipment
- Crystal Clear: Virgin LDPE provides excellent clarity for part identification without opening bags
- Food Grade: FDA compliant resin enables dual-use in food packaging applications requiring heavy protection
Thickness Selection Guide
Choosing the right mil thickness prevents product damage and controls packaging costs:
- 1-1.5 mil: Light dust covers, temporary protection
- 2 mil: General purpose, standard parts packaging
- 4 mil: Heavy-duty, industrial parts with moderate edges
- 6 mil: Extra heavy-duty—sharp castings, heavy machined parts, extreme applications
