STRETCH WRAP MACHINE GRADE FILM

• High Quality Machine Grade films
• Up to 300% Pre-Stretch Film Ratio
• 20" wide film in a variety of film gauges
• Pallet loads of rolls ship freight inclusive
It is important to use the correct type of stretch film in our stretch wrap
machines. There are many different manufactures and types of stretch film
in the market. You must use machine grade film in our machines or you will
most likely see poor performance and film tearing. Hand grade films are not
made to withstand the tension and stretch that a machine can put on the film.
Our machines require 20'' wide machine grade film to feed through the
carriage rollers properly, you can you narrower film but 20" is the most
common.
Film is classified by the gauge or thickness of the material. For our power
pre-stretch models 850PS, 1100AC, 1200UL, and 1100AA-C we sug-
gest an 90 gauge or higher equivalent film grade. This will help reduce the
chance of tearing as the film is extruded through the powered rollers. The
type of pallets and product you’re wrapping along with the speed and
tension of the film all play a role in the quality of the wrap and the risk of
film tearing. We are happy to make suggestion on the best film choice for
your operation.

Stretch Film Overview and things to think about:
• You must use machine grade film in our machines
• Our pre-stretch machines require 80-90 gauge equivalent
   or higher to reduce the chance of film tearing on corners
   of the pallet and product.
• Sharp edges, speed, and film tension level all play a role
   in the quality of your wrap and the chance of having the
   film tear.
• You can reduce cost by selecting the best film gauge for your
   operation.
• By selecting the right film you reduce wasted film (too many
   revolutions), reduce chance of tearing, and reduce over-
   spending on too thick of film that can be costly. All things that
   shorten the cylce and reduce wasted material.
• We are happy to help you select the right type of film for or
   machines and your application
