Flat Poly Bags 7″ x 9″ 3 mil 1000/CTN

Automotive Gasket & Seal Kit Poly Bags 7×9

These 7 x 9 in. flat poly bags at 3 mil provide the puncture resistance and dimensional clearance needed for packaging automotive gasket sets, seal repair kits, O-ring assortments, and small hardware assemblies. The heavier 3 mil wall handles the sharp edges common in stamped metal gaskets and threaded fastener kits without risk of bag failure during storage or transit.

Specs: 7 x 9 in. | 3 mil | LDPE | 1000/Carton | FDA Compliant

Applications

Used by automotive parts distributors, MRO suppliers, and industrial hardware packagers for individual bagging of gasket sets, shaft seal kits, O-ring variety packs, and small component repair kits. Also suitable for small electronics accessories, dental supply packaging, craft hardware kits, and other flat or low-profile assemblies requiring a 7 x 9 in. bag with heavy-duty wall protection.

Features

• 3 mil LDPE construction resists puncture from sharp gasket edges, threaded fittings, and metal stampings
• Open-end design for efficient manual or semi-automated loading
• Bottom seal construction provides secure base for stacking and shelf storage
• Heat sealable, or can be closed with tape, staples, or twist ties
• Made from 100% virgin LDPE resin meeting FDA and USDA specifications

Material Notes

Manufactured from virgin Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) at nominal 3 mil gauge. The higher wall thickness compared to standard 1.5 or 2 mil bags is appropriate for hardware and industrial part kits where bag integrity must be maintained through distribution handling and point-of-sale display. LDPE remains pliable and does not embrittle in standard warehouse storage conditions.

Use Case Notes

The 7 x 9 in. footprint covers most standard passenger car gasket sets (head gaskets excluded), common shaft seal kits, and O-ring variety assortments used in powertrain maintenance. In the hardware trade, this size handles blister card filler bags for nuts and bolt sets, hinge and fastener kit bags, and similar flat hardware packaging up to approximately 6 x 8 in. content dimension.

Common Questions

Q: Is 3 mil necessary for gasket kits, or would 2 mil work?
A: For kits containing stamped metal parts, threaded fittings, or rubber seals with protruding lips, 3 mil provides meaningfully better puncture resistance than 2 mil. For paper or light plastic content, 2 mil is generally sufficient.

Q: Can these be used for food packaging?
A: Yes. Made from virgin LDPE resin meeting FDA and USDA food contact specifications, these bags are suitable for indirect food contact applications.

Q: Do you offer smaller counts for lower-volume operations?
A: These are sold in cartons of 1000. Contact us for volume pricing on full pallet quantities.

Why Buy

At 1000 per carton, this format supports high-turnover automotive and industrial parts distribution without frequent replenishment. The 3 mil gauge covers a broader range of kit contents than standard 2 mil bags, reducing the need to stock multiple gauges for mixed hardware SKUs in the same size range.
