LK® 8F0709 – 7×9 TUF-R® Heavy LLDPE Flat Bag, 1.8 Mil | 1,000/CS

LK® 8F0709 — 7×9 TUF-R® Heavy LLDPE Flat Bag, 1.8 Mil, 1,000/CS

The LK® 8F0709 is a 7-inch by 9-inch heavy-gauge LLDPE flat bag made from 1.8 mil TUF-R® Heavy film, packed 1,000 per case. TUF-R® Heavy is LK Packaging’s heavy-duty LLDPE line delivering greater puncture resistance and seal strength than standard-duty film. The open-top flat construction accepts heat sealing, impulse sealing, or twist-tie closure and fits standard wicket and tabletop bagging equipment.

When Should You Choose 1.8 Mil Over Standard LLDPE for a 7×9 Bag?

The 7×9 format is well-suited for mid-size components, multi-part kits, and food items in the 0.5- to 1.5-pound range. Step up to 1.8 mil TUF-R® Heavy when contents have abrasive surfaces that wear against the bag wall during transport, when the application requires the bag to hold its shape during automated filling and conveying without collapsing, or when the customer-facing product requires a premium-feel bag that projects quality. The heavier gauge also provides more reliable seal integrity on high-speed automated lines where dwell time may be compressed.

TUF-R® Heavy LLDPE Film Properties — 1.8 Mil Gauge

TUF-R® Heavy bags are made from 100% linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) at 1.8 mil nominal gauge. The film provides high puncture resistance, excellent elongation-to-break, and strong dart impact strength. LLDPE resin allows the film to stretch under stress rather than tear abruptly, protecting bag contents during handling and shipping. The film is optically clear, heat-sealable on standard sealing equipment, and free of plasticizers, coatings, or barrier additives that would complicate recycling or food contact applications.

Vinyl Record Sleeve, Book, and Collectible Media Protection in the 7×9 Format

The 7×9 dimension is standard for protecting 7-inch vinyl single sleeves, silver-age comic book bags, paperback books, and similar flat collectibles. Collectors, archivists, and online resellers bag these items individually in heavy-duty poly for moisture protection, surface scratch prevention, and professional presentation for mailing. The 1.8 mil gauge provides enough rigidity to prevent the bag from collapsing and scratching the record or book cover during handling, while remaining clear for display. For e-commerce sellers of vintage media and collectibles, the heavier gauge reduces the risk of bag damage during fulfillment and shipping operations.
