Vac-Pak HS8171 is a hydrophilic material. Moisture and water act as plasticizers. The level of moisture content at time of
use is therefore an important factor for successful performance. All nylon films absorb water. The higher the moisture
content the more flexible they become. Conversely at lower moisture levels flexibility is limited.
Do not store rolls vertically on their ends.
