Order of Measurement

  • Width X Length plus gauge
  • Width X Gusset X Length plus gauge Width X Length X Gusset plus gauge
MEASURING FOR DRUM LINERS:page1image5376
  • Width = (the circumference of the drum divided by 2) + 2”. It is easiest to use a flexible tape measure and measure around the widest part of the drum.
  • Length = (height of the drum + the width [diameter]) + 4”.
  • The extra 4” provides the extra material to fold over or tie the bag.

MEASURING FOR BOX LINERS:

  • Width = (the circumference of the box divided by 2) + 2”. The circumference equals the sum of the length of each side. Length = 1⁄2 the narrow width + the height of the box.
  • Add 5” to 8” extra material for fold over or tie off.

MEASURING FOR PALLET COVERS:

  • Width = (the circumference of the pallet divided by 2) + 4”. The circumference equals the sum of the length of each side. Length = (1/2 the narrow width of the load + the height
  • of the load) + 2”.
