How many mil thick are Foodsaver bags?
1135846
I tried the food saver bags today and was very disappointed with their inability to get all of the air out of the bag.. Is it because I have a Cabela's vacuum sealer and not a food saver? The Cabela's bags are smooth on both sides where yours are dimpled on side and smooth the opposite side..

Hi. I don't know how many mills thick they are, but they are thicker than the bread bags at the store. They are more sturdier, also. I really like them, & I have used two bags this week. I am very PLEASED with them. Hope this helps!

Feels like the same thickness as the Foodsaver brand bags. I've used about half of 1 roll and have had no problems. I'll purchase these again.

Not sure but I would think the concept is the same as long as the size fits. These bags work better than the Foodsaver bags and at a better price.

It does not matter whether it is 3 or 4 mil thick as long as the bags vacu-seal with your brand of sealer, they all work well. Just do not use anything less than the 3 mil thickness as those can absorb odors from surrounding foods. The only time the thickness matters is if you plan on using them as boil-a-bags. Then the thickness is very important as the thinner bags will not hold up to the temperature of the boiling water.

I am not sure what mil they are. But they are very sturdy and more than capable of being reused multiple times. They are thicker than the snack bag plastic of Ziplock, but not as thick as the storage bags.

I can't remember the actual thickness; however they are as thick or thicker than the original Seal A Meal Bags and the 50' rolls last so, so very much longer. I'm pleased with the purchase!

The bags are about the same thickness as all the other brands. We have used several of them and so far are very pleased.

The bags are a bit too thick...its hard to get a good seal with a non commercial vacuum sealer.

It does not say on the package but they are sufficiently thick for bagging holiday cookies, which is the purpose for which I bought them. If I had to *guess* I would say 2 ml because I have shoes with a 3 ml bottom and the bags are thinner but they are not as thin as some 1 mil laminating film with which I am familiar. I hope that helps.

They are definitely thicker than food saver bags and if you are processing and sealing a lot of bags the food saver vac channels will fail because of the heat strip being hot but these bags will always vacuum no matter what . Trust me way better product than food saver

Yes, it will work with your foodsaver, But I had two of them and they both cracked with in a month. I will not buy them every again.

Hello Patrick. This works perfectly with thin plastic film but the foodsaver bags are too thick for it and it may wont cut them properly.

Amazon sells them FoodSaver 3-Pack Bottle Stoppers and the food saver bags come in 11" wide rolls on amazon too......http://www.amazon.com/FoodSaver-FSFSBF0616-000-11-Roll/dp/B00005OTXU

2.2 Mil is .0022 thick in inches. Another way is to take 6 garbage bags and stack them in one pile and that would be the same thickness. Our Eco Mattress Bag is a non crinkle and crackle bag that seals and protects your mattress from moisture, mildew and small insects.
