9x18 Tuf-R Linear Low Density Flat Bags - Lightweight Protection for Long, Narrow Items
These 9x18 Tuf-R flat poly bags by LK Packaging deliver reliable protection for calendars, prints, posters, and other long-format items. Made from linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE), Tuf-R bags offer enhanced strength and puncture resistance compared to standard LDPE bags of the same thickness—allowing you to use lighter gauges while maintaining durability.
Product Specifications
- Dimensions: 9" x 18" flat bag
- Material: Tuf-R Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE)
- Thickness: 1 mil
- Quantity: 1,000 bags per case

Commercial Applications
The 9x18 dimension makes these bags ideal for packaging calendars, rolled or flat prints, promotional posters, and oversized documents. Print shops and publishing operations use this size to protect finished pieces during storage and shipping. Retail stores stock these for packaging narrow merchandise like scarves, ties, or elongated gift items. The lightweight 1 mil thickness provides dust and moisture protection without adding bulk, making them suitable for interleaving products during manufacturing or protecting items in warehouse inventory.
Key Features
- Superior Puncture Resistance: LLDPE construction outperforms standard LDPE at equivalent thickness, reducing material costs
- Lightweight Economy: 1 mil thickness provides protection while minimizing packaging weight and expense
- Crystal Clarity: Transparent material allows easy product identification without opening
- Virgin Material Construction: Made from virgin polyethylene for consistent quality and FDA compliance
- Cost-Effective Alternative: Tuf-R bags often replace heavier gauge LDPE bags, saving money and reducing environmental impact
Material Comparison
Tuf-R LLDPE bags provide a practical advantage over conventional low density polyethylene. The linear molecular structure delivers better tensile strength and puncture resistance, which means a 1 mil Tuf-R bag can often do the work of a 1.5 or 2 mil standard LDPE bag. For operations processing high volumes, this translates to measurable savings in material costs while maintaining protective performance.
