BUYER EXPLANATION
80 gauge equals 0.80 mil, or about 20.3 microns. That gives buyers a common basis for comparing U.S. gauge language with metric thickness descriptions used on some quote sheets.
Using the polyethylene estimate width x gauge x length x 0.00000398, an 18 in x 80 gauge x 1,500 ft roll contains about 8.60 lb of net film. Core and carton weight are not included, so confirm whether a supplier is stating net or gross roll weight.
A 1,500 ft roll has more film than a 1,000 ft roll and can reduce roll changes, but it may feel heavier in daily use. The best comparison includes pallets wrapped per roll, operator comfort, tail hold and film breaks.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
