Flat Poly Bags 6″ x 12″ 3 mil 1000/CTN

Fluorescent Bulb & LED Driver Poly Bags — 6″ x 12″ / 3 Mil LDPE / 1000 per Carton

These 6″ x 12″ flat poly bags are sized for elongated components that need protection in shipping, kitting, and distribution — fluorescent bulbs, LED driver modules, linear lighting components, and similar long, narrow items. At 3 mil LDPE, the bags handle the mechanical stress of stacking and shipping without puncturing on bulb sockets or driver housing edges. The 6″ width accommodates standard bulb base diameters with enough slack for easy loading on fast-moving pack lines.

Specs: 6″ x 12″ | 3 Mil | LDPE | 1000/CTN | FDA/USDA Compliant

Applications

Fluorescent tube bulb protection bags, LED driver and power supply module sleeving, linear lighting component packaging, automotive trim strip bags, industrial sensor and probe protection, medical device component bags, long-format hardware (anchor bolts, all-thread rod sections), cosmetic brush and applicator packaging.

Features

• 3 mil LDPE — heavy-duty gauge for components with edges, sockets, or sharp ends
• 6″ width accommodates standard bulb base diameters and driver module housings
• 12″ length covers most T8 and T12 compact fluorescent formats and LED drivers
• Heat sealable, tie-close, staple, or tape closure options
• Durable bottom seal or side weld construction
• 1000/CTN for continuous distribution line use

Material Notes

Manufactured from 100% virgin LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene) resin meeting FDA/USDA specifications. All listed gauges are nominal. Virgin resin ensures consistent film thickness and seal integrity, reducing the puncture-rate variability common in recycled-content bags when used with sharp-edged components.

Use Case Notes

The 6×12 format is a practical fit for compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) up to a standard ballast-integrated design, and for LED driver modules in the 6–10 watt range. For distribution kitting, the bag accommodates a driver and its associated wire lead coil together in a single bag. At 3 mil, it resists the puncturing common with mounting brackets and connector pins that 1.5 or 2 mil bags cannot handle reliably.

Common Questions

Is this bag suitable for fragile glass components?
For fragile glass bulbs, the bag provides dust and moisture protection but not impact cushioning. Pair with bubble wrap or foam insert for fragile bulb protection in shipping applications.

Can this bag be heat sealed?
Yes. The open end is heat sealable with standard impulse or continuous band sealers. Can also be closed with ties, staples, or tape.

Is this bag FDA compliant?
Yes. Made from 100% virgin LDPE resin meeting FDA/USDA specifications for food contact applications.

Why Buy

The 6×12 / 3 mil flat bag covers a range of elongated industrial and electrical components that are underserved by the more common square and wide-format bag sizes. The 3 mil gauge handles sharp edges from sockets, mounting holes, and connector pins without the puncture rate that makes lighter bags a liability in high-volume distribution operations.
