LK® 8F0912 – 9×12 TUF-R® Heavy LLDPE Flat Bag, 2 Mil | 1,000/CS

LK® 8F0912 — 9×12 TUF-R® Heavy LLDPE Flat Bag, 2 Mil, 1,000/CS

The LK® 8F0912 is a 9-inch by 12-inch heavy-gauge LLDPE flat bag made from 2 mil TUF-R® Heavy film, packed 1,000 per case. TUF-R® Heavy is LK Packaging’s heavy-duty LLDPE line, and at 2 mil this is among the most robust flat bags in the LK range. The 9×12 footprint accommodates letter-size documents, larger food portions, and industrial components requiring the highest available level of film protection in this size class. The open-top flat construction accepts heat sealing, impulse sealing, or reclosure for both manual and high-speed automated operations.

When Should You Choose 2 Mil Over 1.8 Mil or Standard LLDPE for a 9×12 Bag?

Specify 2 mil for the 9×12 format when fill weight is substantial, when contents have multiple sharp or abrasive contact points across the bag face, or when the application involves long shelf-storage periods where bag film may experience repeated handling fatigue before use. The 2 mil specification is also correct when customer-facing quality standards, regulatory documents, or internal quality specs call out a minimum gauge — the additional thickness provides a clear and documentable upgrade over standard-duty film at every performance metric.

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

TUF-R® Heavy 2 mil bags are produced from 100% LLDPE resin with no coatings or barrier additives. At 2.0 mil nominal gauge, the film achieves maximum puncture resistance and dart impact performance in the TUF-R® Heavy flat bag product line. LLDPE’s elongation characteristics allow the film to distribute puncture and impact stress across a wide area before failure, providing superior protection compared to higher-density polyethylene films of equivalent gauge. The film is optically clear, heat-sealable to an airtight seam on standard equipment, and maintains its properties across a broad temperature range.

Document, Letter-Size Photo Print, and Large-Format Art Protection in the 9×12 Format

The 9×12 dimension is standard for letter-size document protection, large-format photo prints (8×10 with border), and art prints in the letter to A4 size range. Law offices, insurance companies, and document-intensive businesses use clear poly bags of this size to protect individual documents and dossiers in filing systems, mail distribution, and archival storage. The 2 mil gauge provides meaningful protection against tearing during filing and retrieval operations where documents are handled at volume. For photographers and fine art publishers, the 9×12 heavy-gauge bag protects bordered prints during mailing and retail display while the high optical clarity maintains print color fidelity visible through the bag.

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 food packaging applications as well as document, industrial, and retail uses requiring food-safe materials. The 100% LLDPE composition carries resin identification code #4 (LDPE) and qualifies for recycling at retail plastic film drop-off locations when clean and dry. No coatings, barrier materials, or colorants are incorporated into the film.
