Thickness Guide
At 3 mil, these bags fall into the heavy-duty category—ideal for items with some weight or edges that might stress thinner bags. For comparison: 1.5 mil suits lightweight dust covers, 2 mil handles general-purpose packaging, and 3 mil provides the durability needed for textile operations, hardware, and industrial parts. Choose 3 mil when bag integrity during handling is critical.
