LK® 8F1012 – 10×12 TUF-R® Heavy LLDPE Flat Bag, 2 Mil | 500/CS

LK® 8F1012 — 10×12 TUF-R® Heavy LLDPE Flat Bag, 2 Mil, 500/CS

The LK® 8F1012 is a 10-inch by 12-inch heavy-gauge LLDPE flat bag made from 2 mil TUF-R® Heavy film, packed 500 per case. TUF-R® Heavy is LK Packaging’s heavy-duty LLDPE line engineered for applications where standard-duty film fails under the weight, sharp edges, or abrasive surfaces of demanding industrial and food packaging content. The open-top flat construction accepts heat sealing, impulse sealing, or twist-tie closure on standard tabletop and automated bagging equipment.

When Should You Choose 2 Mil Over Standard LLDPE for a 10×12 Bag?

The 10×12 bag occupies the mid-range of flat bag dimensions where weight, rigidity, and abrasion resistance all become relevant simultaneously. At 2 mil, TUF-R® Heavy provides the stiffness needed to hold a wide, open bag mouth during filling operations — preventing bag collapse around the product as it’s inserted. For applications requiring significant fill weights, sharp-edged components, or industrial content with irregular surface geometry, 2 mil is the correct specification. The added gauge also ensures consistent sealing on wider bags where film tension at the jaw-sealer is lower.

TUF-R® Heavy LLDPE Film Properties — 2 Mil Gauge

TUF-R® Heavy 2 mil bags are produced from 100% LLDPE resin at 2.0 mil nominal gauge with no coatings, barrier layers, or plasticizers. The film delivers the highest puncture resistance and dart impact performance in the TUF-R® Heavy flat bag product line. LLDPE resin elongates significantly before failure, distributing puncture and impact stress across the bag surface rather than concentrating it at a single point. The material is optically clear, heat-sealable to a consistent airtight seam, and maintains flexibility at freezer temperatures.

Whole Produce and Large Protein Portioning in the 10×12 Format

The 10×12 flat bag is a standard size in bulk produce handling — whole heads of lettuce, cauliflower, broccoli crowns, and large root vegetables fit the 10×12 footprint for direct-to-consumer, farmers market, and food service distribution. For proteins, whole bone-in chicken, large duck breasts, and multi-pound roast cuts fit precisely in the 10×12 format at typical food service portion sizes. The 2 mil TUF-R® Heavy gauge withstands the puncture stress from produce stems, bone ends, and the surface abrasion of rough-skinned vegetables during fill, seal, and cold chain handling. FDA-compliant LLDPE is appropriate for direct contact with fresh produce and raw meat.

FDA Compliance and Recyclability of TUF-R® Heavy LLDPE Flat Bags

TUF-R® Heavy LLDPE film is FDA-compliant under 21 CFR for direct food contact, qualifying it for fresh produce, meat, and food service packaging applications. The 100% LLDPE single-resin composition carries resin identification code #4 (LDPE) and qualifies for recycling at retail plastic film drop-off programs when clean and dry. No coatings, dyes, or barrier materials are present in the film formulation.
