LK® 8G084021 – 8×4×21 TUF-R® Heavy LLDPE Gusset Bag, 0.85 Mil | 500/CS

LK® 8G084021 – 8″×4″×21″ TUF-R® Heavy LLDPE Side Gusset Bag, 0.85 Mil | 500/CS

The LK® 8G084021 is a 0.85 mil clear TUF-R® Heavy LLDPE side gusset bag measuring 8″ wide × 4″ gusset × 21″ long, sold in cases of 500. The 21″ length makes this the longest format in the 8″-face gusset series — designed for tall or elongated products that require the 8″ width but need more length than the 18″ and 20″ formats provide. TUF-R® Heavy film’s superior puncture and fold-line resistance ensures bag integrity under the combined stress of large dimensions and heavy fill loads.

What advantages does the 4″ gusset provide in a 8″×21″ long-format bag?

At 21″, the 8G084021 provides the extra bag length needed when content height exceeds what the 18″ and 20″ formats can seal cleanly over. The 4″ gusset maintains the volumetric capacity needed for wide, variable-shape fills — preventing the film from distorting against irregular produce shapes or stacked component packs. The additional seal clearance at 21″ also benefits automated packing lines where maintaining a clean, uncontaminated seal zone is difficult with shorter bags.

0.85 Mil TUF-R® Heavy LLDPE Film Technical Properties

TUF-R® Heavy LLDPE at 0.85 mil provides substantially greater puncture resistance and Elmendorf tear strength compared to standard 0.5 mil LLDPE gusset film. For a 21″ bag with a 4″ gusset, the film’s elongation-before-break specification ensures consistent performance from the bottom seal to the open top even when fill weight concentrates stress at the base gusset corners. The film is clear throughout its full dimensions for product visibility at point of sale.

Long-Format Produce, Asparagus Bunches, and Farmers Market Packaging

Farmers market produce vendors and specialty grocery buyers use the 8×4×21 format for large leek bunches, asparagus bundles, and king palm stems that exceed the 15″ and 18″ bag lengths in the narrower series. The 8″ face accommodates wide bunch diameters while the 21″ length allows full stems to sit inside without bending or crowding, preserving the product presentation that buyers and direct-to-consumer customers expect. The clear film allows full visibility of the stem and tip condition — a key quality indicator for perishable produce sold at a premium.
