42" Poly Tubing - Custom-Length Packaging on a Roll
This 42-inch wide poly tubing lets you create custom-sized bags and covers on demand. Simply measure, cut, and heat seal one or both ends to package items of any length—no need to stock dozens of bag sizes. Ideal for operations with irregular or oversized products that don't fit standard poly bags.
Specs: 42" wide | 1.5 mil | LDPE | 2,900 ft/roll | 12" diameter roll with 3" core | FDA food-contact compliant
Commercial Applications
Poly tubing eliminates the guesswork of bag sizing. Furniture manufacturers use it to wrap chair legs, table components, and custom millwork. Industrial operations protect machine parts, long metal stock, and fabricated assemblies. Food processors create custom pouches for artisan breads, specialty cuts, and bulk items. Distribution centers wrap awkward-shaped products that don't fit standard boxes. The 42-inch width accommodates large items like small appliances, furniture cushions, and equipment housings.

Common Questions
Q: How do I calculate how many bags I can make from one roll?
A: Divide 2,900 feet by your bag length plus 1-2 inches for sealing. For example, 24-inch bags (26" with seal allowance) yield approximately 1,338 bags per roll.
Q: What equipment do I need to seal poly tubing?
A: An impulse sealer or constant-heat sealer works best. Choose a sealer with a jaw width at least as wide as the tubing—42" sealers are available, or seal in sections with a narrower unit.
Q: Is this tubing suitable for freezer storage?
A: Yes. The 1.5 mil LDPE remains flexible at freezer temperatures and provides moisture barrier protection for frozen food storage.
