12" Premium Polylined Heavyweight Record Inner Sleeves - Archival Quality, Heavyweight Paper & Plastic #12IA (25)
These are new PREMIUM 12" Polylined Innersleeves. These sleeves measure 12-1/8" x 12" with a 1/4" lip (308.12mm x 304.8mm with a 6.35mm lip).
They are made from heavy weight, 20# paper with a high-density polyethylene lamination.
This is a much stronger material and is more anti-static than traditional, low-density polyethylene sleeves. We have seen every attempt at a polylined sleeve and are thrilled to bring our customers the best sleeve on the market! We can state with confidence that this is by far the best polylined 12" sleeve we have ever seen - anywhere!
The difference is in the way that the lining is put on to the sleeves. Traditionally, 12" polylined sleeves use a gluing process. When the sleeves are glued, there is always a visible glue lining on the inside of the sleeve and down both sides along the edge - sometimes it's subtle, sometimes it's obvious. If the sleeves aren't glued up high enough, then the record can get caught between the paper & the plastic, ripping the sleeve. The plastic is glued on one side & all along the top edge. The side gluing does not make a complete bag, but one that is opened on the glued side, creating a path for paper dust from the paper sleeve. If the plastic isn't glued down inside the entire sleeve, then the plastic can get caught and pulled out with the record. Our new sleeves are made by laminating the paper with the plastic BEFORE the sleeves are folded. While it looks like only the window is covered by the plastic, the plastic is actually it's own layer that's laminated onto the paper! This creates a GLUELESS & SEAMLESS, pristine sleeve that offers better protection.
We feel this is the best polylined sleeve ever marketed!
**WARNING: The first use of these sleeves, you will notice a slight tack to the outside center window. This tack will disappear after the first time you remove the sleeve from the record jacket.**
