Heavy, sharp-cornered or unstable loads need higher gauge for puncture resistance and holding force.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between cast and blown stretch wrap?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCast film is made by extrusion onto a chilled roller - clearer, quieter to unwind, smoother stretch. Blown film is air-cooled - tougher and more puncture resistant, but hazier and louder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs pre-stretched film worth it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor hand wrapping it usually is. It requires much less pulling force, which reduces operator fatigue and shoulder strain, and it yields more wrapped pallets per pound of film.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow many wraps does a pallet need?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnough to achieve the containment force the load requires, with reinforcement at the base to lock the load to the pallet. Counting revolutions alone does not tell you whether the load is secure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy does my film keep tearing?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsually sharp corners, too high a stretch setting for the gauge, or film that is too light for the load. Corner protectors and a heavier gauge both help.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere do the specifications on this page come from?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey are taken from the manufacturer's published listing.
