- What is the difference between cast and blown stretch film?
- Cast film is cooled on a chill roll, which makes it clearer and quieter to unwind. Blown film is tougher and more puncture-resistant but cloudier and noisier. This roll is cast, so clarity and low noise are its strengths.
- Will this fit my pallet wrapper?
- It is a standard 20-inch, 80-gauge machine roll with a 6,000-foot length, sized for common powered stretch wrappers. Check your machine's core size and roll diameter limits before ordering.
- How much does the 250 percent stretch actually help?
- Stretching to 250 percent means each foot of film covers more than three feet of load, so a roll lasts longer on uniform pallets. Heavier or irregular loads usually need less stretch to avoid tearing.
- Is it quiet enough for a busy warehouse?
- Cast film releases from the roll more smoothly than blown film, and the maker claims noise reductions up to 75 percent. Actual results depend on your machine's speed and tension settings.
- Can I use it on sharp or irregular loads?
- It works best on uniform, square loads. Sharp corners and protruding edges can puncture cast film, so corner protectors or a tougher blown film may be better there.
- What comes in the box?
- One roll of clear 80-gauge cast machine stretch film, 20 inches wide and 6,000 feet long.
