Common Questions
Q: How do I seal poly tubing into bags?
A: Use a heat sealer (impulse or constant heat) to create permanent seals. For temporary closure, stapling or taping works well. Cut tubing to desired length plus 1-2" for seal allowance.
Q: What's the actual bag width when using 4.5" tubing?
A: The 4.5" measurement is the flat width (layflat). When opened, the tubing creates a bag with approximately 2.8" of usable interior width—ideal for slim items like rolled papers, dowels, or narrow food products.
Q: Is this tubing food safe?
A: Yes, this LK Packaging tubing is made from 100% virgin low-density polyethylene and meets FDA requirements for food contact applications.
