7F0308 – 3″ × 8″ TUF-R® LLDPE Flat Bags | Per Case

LK® 7F0308: 3″ × 8″ TUF-R® Standard LLDPE Flat Bags for Long Narrow Items and Food Packaging

The LK® 7F0308 is a 3-inch by 8-inch clear LLDPE flat bag from the TUF-R® Standard line. At 8 inches long in a 3-inch wide format, this bag handles slender elongated products that need more width than the 2-inch series provides: breadsticks and grissini, asparagus bundles, long cosmetic brushes, small tools, 6-inch hardware components, and craft items like dowel rods and long-handled paint brushes. The 3-inch width keeps the bag proportional to products in the 2- to 2.75-inch profile range while the 8-inch length handles items up to approximately 7 inches with comfortable sealing clearance. NFC Bags stocks 7F0308 in case quantities for retail, food, and industrial packaging applications.

3″ Width and 8″ Length: The Standard Narrow Format for Mid-Length Elongated Items

The 3″ × 8″ dimension bridges the gap between the compact 3-inch series bags (3×3 through 3×6) and the long-format bags (3×10 through 3×18). Items in the 5 to 7-inch range at 2 to 2.75 inches wide — including individual breadsticks, most cosmetic brush handles, small craft dowels, 6-inch ruler-style items, and standard pretzel rods — are ideally matched to the 8-inch bag format. The 3-inch width handles products that are too wide for a 2-inch bag but do not require the 4-inch or wider bag formats. FDA compliance covers both food and non-food applications at this size, making the 3×8 a single-specification solution across retail, food, and industrial uses.

How the 3″ × 8″ Format Serves Long Narrow Food Items and Industrial Parts Packaging at the Same Specification

One defining characteristic of the 3″ × 8″ flat bag is that it serves both food and non-food elongated item packaging at the same bag specification without modification. A retail breadstick bag and an industrial bolt bag can both be the same 3″ × 8″ LLDPE flat bag — the film is FDA-compliant for food contact, so the same SKU works across both applications. For distributors and contract packagers handling mixed product categories, this dual-purpose capability reduces the number of bag SKUs that need to be stocked and managed. For specialty food producers packaging products like breadsticks, grissini, or tall herb bundles alongside a bakery accessories line, it means one bag covers both the food and non-food SKUs in the same size range. At 0.9 mil LLDPE, the 7F0308 provides enough strength for typical items in both food and industrial applications without requiring a heavier gauge that would increase material cost per bag.

7F0308 vs. 7F0306 and 7F0310: Positioning in the 3-Inch Length Series

7F0306 (3×6″) handles items up to about 5 inches tall. 7F0308 (3×8″) handles items up to about 7 inches tall. 7F0310 (3×10″) handles items up to about 8.5 to 9 inches tall. For items in the 5 to 7-inch range at 3-inch width, the 7F0308 is the correct size. Items just under 5 inches can sometimes move to the 7F0306 for a more material-efficient fit; items just over 7 inches should step up to the 7F0310 to maintain adequate seal clearance. All sizes are stocked at NFC Bags.
