5x8 Heavy Duty Flat Poly Bags - 6 Mil Extra-Thick LDPE by LK Packaging
These 5x8 flat poly bags feature an extra-heavy 6 mil thickness designed for demanding industrial applications where standard bags fail. LK Packaging manufactures these bags from virgin LDPE material using seamless tubing construction, eliminating weak side seals that can tear under stress. Ideal for sharp-edged parts, heavy components, and applications requiring maximum puncture resistance.

Industrial Applications
The 6 mil thickness makes these bags the go-to choice for packaging sharp or abrasive items that would puncture thinner materials. Hardware distributors use them for fasteners with sharp threads, cutting tools, and machined parts with burrs. Electronics manufacturers rely on this gauge for components with pins or leads that could pierce standard packaging. Automotive and aerospace operations package small metal stampings, washers, and precision parts that require robust protection during storage and transit.
Key Features
- Maximum Puncture Resistance: 6 mil thickness handles sharp edges, points, and abrasive surfaces
- Seamless Construction: No side seals to split or tear under stress
- Virgin Material: Made from 100% virgin LDPE for consistent clarity and strength
- Dispenser Packaging: Packs of 100 keep bags clean and organized on the workbench

Thickness Comparison
At 6 mil, these bags offer approximately 3x the thickness of standard 2 mil bags and double the protection of 3 mil heavy-duty options. This extra thickness is essential when packaging items that would compromise thinner materials, including threaded fasteners, drill bits, saw blades, carbide inserts, and similar sharp-edged inventory.
