Common Questions
Q: What items fit in 48" poly tubing?
A: When laid flat, 48" tubing creates approximately 30" of usable width on each side (accounting for seams). This accommodates furniture up to 28" wide, most major appliances, and palletized loads up to standard 48x40 pallet dimensions.
Q: What's the difference between 2 mil and 3 mil poly tubing?
A: 3 mil tubing provides approximately 50% more puncture resistance than 2 mil. Choose 3 mil for furniture with corners or hardware, items with sharp edges, or products requiring extended storage protection. Use 2 mil for lighter items or short-term dust covers.
Q: Can this tubing be used for food packaging?
A: Yes. This tubing is manufactured from 100% virgin LDPE and meets FDA requirements for direct food contact. The 48" width is commonly used for wrapping large food service equipment, bulk food products, and oversized bakery items.
