Cast extruded for clear, quiet film with consistent cling — pairs well with most turntable wrappers. Sized for turntable, rotary arm, and orbital stretch wrap machines in higher-volume warehouse and 3PL operations. Machine film typically pre-stretches in the wrapper itself (200-250% on most machines), so a single roll wraps far more pallets than the same length of hand film.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecs at a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFilm type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast machine stretch film\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWidth\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eGauge\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e80 gauge (0.80 mil)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLength per roll\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6000'\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eColor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHand vs. machine\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMachine-grade (for turntable, rotary arm, or orbital wrappers)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRolls per case\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBest for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBest for warehouses, 3PLs, manufacturers, and high-throughput shippers running a stretch wrap machine.
