Flat Poly Bags 6″ x 12″ 4 mil 1000/CTN

Drill Bit & Cutting Tool Poly Bags — 6 x 12 in., 4 mil LDPE

These narrow-format industrial poly bags are sized for drill bits, end mills, taps, reamers, and similar precision cutting tools that require individual or set bagging during storage, kitting, and distribution. At 6 x 12 inches and 4 mil thickness, they provide industrial-grade puncture and abrasion resistance against the sharp edges and tips common in machined cutting tool packaging. The open-end format allows fast insertion of tool sets without bending or bundling.

Specs: 6 x 12 in. | 4 mil | Virgin LDPE | 1000/Carton | FDA Compliant

Applications

• Drill bit set and step drill packaging for wholesale distribution
• End mill, tap, and reamer individual tool storage and kitting
• Precision machining component protection during inter-facility transit
• Industrial tool crib organization and parts identification bagging
• OEM tool kit assembly and packaging for industrial equipment sales

Features

• 4 mil nominal thickness — industrial gauge resistant to puncture from sharp cutting edges
• 6 x 12 inch narrow format sized for drill bit sets and long-form cutting tools
• Open-end design for fast, unbent insertion of tool sets
• Compatible with heat sealing, tying, stapling, or taping
• Virgin LDPE construction — high elongation-at-break resists tearing under sharp contact
• FDA compliant resin

Material Notes

Manufactured from 100% virgin Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) resin. At 4 mil, LDPE provides a tough, flexible barrier with high elongation-at-break — a critical property when packaging sharp-tipped precision tools that can puncture lower-gauge films under handling stress. All gauge specifications are nominal.

Use Case Notes

The 6-inch width accommodates most standard drill bit sets (typically 4–5 inches in diameter when banded) with room to spare. The 12-inch length fits twist drills, end mills, and taps up to approximately 10–11 inches in length. For longer specialty drills or step drills, verify tool length against bag dimensions before bulk ordering.

Common Questions

Q: Will sharp drill tips puncture these bags during handling?
A: The 4 mil thickness provides substantially better puncture resistance than 1–2 mil films. However, for exceptionally sharp, bare-tipped tools being packed loose (not tip-capped), a heavier gauge or tool tip protection is recommended.

Q: Are these bags compatible with label printing or adhesive labels?
A: Yes. Standard adhesive labels adhere well to LDPE surfaces. For printed labels, apply after the tool is bagged to ensure proper label adhesion on the flat surface.

Q: Are these FDA compliant?
A: Yes. Virgin LDPE resin meets FDA specifications, though these bags are primarily specified for industrial cutting tool applications.

Why Buy

Packed 1000 per carton at wholesale pricing, these cutting tool bags reduce per-unit packaging cost for high-volume MRO kitting, tool crib management, and industrial distribution operations. The 6×12 narrow format serves drill bit, end mill, and tap packaging without the material waste of oversized bags, keeping per-unit cost low across large lot runs.
