12" 250gsm Clear Polyethylene Replacement Inner Sleeves
Fit comfortably within the vast majority of LP sleeves with no protrusion or creasing.
High quality polyethylene replacement inner sleeves for 12" singles and LPs. Made from anti-static polyethylene, a strong and durable plastic polymer that protects your records. Replaces paper inner sleeves and provides a way to preserve the condition of printed inner sleeves.
Sometimes a new record will come with a nice new poly-lined inner sleeve. More often they don't, and every time you take a record out of a paper inner sleeve you're risking tiny scratches as the fibrous hairs of the paper slowly but surely abrade the surface of your record every time you take it out to play.
Switching to a polyethylene or poly-lined sleeve prevents all that. Replace paper sleeves and picture inners with these poly sleeves and prolong the life and value of your records.
At 250gsm they are also slim enough to fit inside the jacket along with the original inner sleeves without putting pressure on the outer sleeve and straining the glue. These sleeves are acid-free and non-fibrous so will never damage your records.
Which 12″ inner sleeve is right for your records?
Acid-free describes the material’s chemistry, not its surface feel. Plain paper, poly-lined paper and polyethylene offer different choices for storing and handling your records.
