Poly Tubing

This film is made from 100% virgin low density polyethylene which meets LP-378 requirements and has been treated on one side to accept printing. Because it’s from virgin polyethylene it can be used for food packaging and service. Tubing can be heat sealed, stapled or taped at either one or both ends. All sizes come on 12” diameter rolls. The approximate roll weight per face inch is 3.4 lbs.

If it comes in different lengths and you need to bag it - Miller Poly Bags has the solution.  There's no need to stock multiple bag sizes when you have Miller Poly Bags polyethylene tubing working for you.  Poly tubing has long been the number one choice for flexible packaging.  Miller Poly Bags has just gone one better.  With sizes from 1  1/2" to 48" wide, these strong, 100% virgin low density poly tubes are a natural for protecting items like golf clubs, mini-blinds, posters, fishing rods and more.  To simplify packaging, Miller Poly Bags poly tubing comes on industry standard 12" diameter rolls for automated or manual use.  It's also FDA aproved for food and medical applications.  But best of all, it's in stock and ready ship thanks to our huge stock selection carried at our eight distribution facilites all over the country.  If you need flexible packaging designed to go the distance, then you need Miller Poly Bags.

Gauge    Feet/Roll
0.00125   3,500
0.0015   2,900
0.002   2,150
0.003   1,450
0.004   1,075

Weighing Tubing

Use this formula to determine the weight of 12 inch rolls with 3 inch cores only.

Width of Tubing X 3.4 = weight / roll

Example:

Width of tubing = 12 inches

12 x (.002 on 12” O.D. roll w/3” core)

12 x 3.4 = 40.8 lbs / roll

OR

Width of Tubing X Length of Tubing X Gauge X 0.8 = weight / roll

Example:

Width of tubing = 12 inches

Length of Tubing in feet = 1250 feet

Gauge = .002

 

12” x 1250’ x .002 x .8 = 41 lbs/ roll
