Commercial Applications
The 40-inch width handles oversized items that standard poly bags cannot accommodate. Furniture manufacturers and distributors use this tubing to create protective sleeves for chair backs, table tops, and case goods during shipping and storage. Equipment suppliers cut custom lengths for irregularly shaped machinery, tools, and electronic components. Moving companies rely on wide tubing for dust protection on upholstered items, mattresses, and boxed goods. The tubing also serves pallet operations—create instant pallet covers or wrap tall stacked loads where standard stretch film cannot reach.

Common Questions
Q: How do I calculate the finished bag size from 40" tubing?
A: The 40" measurement is the lay-flat width. When opened, the tubing creates an 80" circumference (roughly 25" diameter). Cut to any length needed, seal one or both ends, and you have a custom bag up to approximately 20" x 20" interior when fully opened.
Q: What equipment do I need to seal this tubing?
A: Any standard impulse sealer with 1.5 mil capacity works well. For high-volume operations, a 42"+ constant heat sealer or band sealer provides faster throughput. The tubing also accepts staples, tape, or twist ties for non-sealed closures.
Q: Can I use this tubing for outdoor or long-term storage?
A: This LDPE tubing provides excellent short-to-medium term protection from dust, dirt, and moisture. For extended outdoor exposure or UV resistance requirements, consider upgrading to our heavier mil or UV-stabilized options.
