DON’T BE THICK ABOUT WALL THICKNESS! 6, 8, 10, 12 OR 15 MIL WALL THICKNESS. .. HOW TO CHOOSE THE CORRECT ONE? What is mil wall thickness? A mil is an old-school term that means one thousandth of an inch. So 6 mil wall thickness means the tape is 6 thousandths of an inch thick. When it comes to tape, sometimes it is good to be thick! Greater wall thickness means the tape will last longer and is more suited for longterm use, or where there is high risk of external damage. Want to go thicker than 15 mil? We have products for that. However, for most tape applications (especially sub-surface), 15 mil is the most you will need. 6 mil wall thickness (NZ translation: Sucks mul wall thickness bro) For 6 mil, you want well-cultivated soils where chewing insects are minimal. Generally you will be using this for single cropping only. Often used for sweet potatoes, onions and lettuce. 8 mil wall thickness With 8 mil you’ve got a bit more strength, making this one of our most popular tapes for strawberries, melons and vegetable crops. 10 mil wall thickness If you’ve got heavy soil and a few insects that fancy a bit of tape, then 10 mil tape will be what you’re chasing. A great tape for beans, corn, melons and vegetable crops. 12 mil wall thickness Looking to re-use your tape or grow for multiple seasons, or have chewy insect problems? Then 12 mil tape is a minimum requirement. You will find 12 mil in sugar cane, cotton and other sub-surface applications. 15 mil wall thickness Bring out the big guns with 15 mil tape. This is the stuff you want to use when you’ve got a swarm of locusts descending on your crop and you want the tape to last a really long time. We’ve got 15 mil tape in sub-surface sugar cane which is over 20 years old. This stuff is tough and often used for cane, cotton, young trees and bananas in more permanent applications.
