Stretch film, aluminum foil, and most flexible packaging reels run on it, which is why it is the size most procurement teams reorder every month.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6 inch: for heavier reels. Wider film widths, textile beams, and paper reels where the roll weight would flex a smaller core.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8 inch: big reels, long runs. Used where roll diameter is large and any bow in the core would show up immediately in the wound roll.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The right size is the one measured off your machine shaft in millimeters, not the one written on a drawing from three years ago.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Large Diameter Paper Tubes (Up to 450mm)<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Above 8 inches you are in custom territory, and most suppliers in the region stop there.
