I have been using a nice GBC laminator for a half-dozen years, generally buying GBC laminating pouches. [...] I've carefully avoided the Fellows pouches because Fellows does not provide a carrier with their pouches. This time, not finding the GBC pouches, I carefully scanned for an acceptable pouch product and thought I had located one when I saw that the Staples brand pouch proudly proclaims on the front of the box that their hot laminate pouch works with all hot laminators. But, Staples does not provide any carriers with their pouches.Calling the Staples support number on the pouch package, I was told that if the laminating machine required a carrier, then certainly I should use a carrier. My efforts to have them identify how to acquire carriers if they were not provided with the pouches resulted only in them telling me that I shoiuld contavt the manufacturer of the laminating machine.Unless you have one of the high-end Fellows machine that, indeed, do not require a carrier, or you have an inventory of carriers, you will need to look for a different brand of pouch. Using this pouch without a carrier in a machine that requires a carrier could result in the pouch being melted to the heated pressure rollers, ensuring that it will never run again...

    Comments about Staples Letter Size Thermal Laminating Pouches, 5 mil, 100 pack:

    I bought these to laminate reminders for my kitchen, bathroom and by our front and back door. My daughter has also used them for school projects including 'game cards' for an English project. They work very well and protect the lists from greasy dirty fingers, bathroom humidity and food messes in the kitchen. I'm glad I chose the 5 mil weight, they're rigid enough but still pliable. They don't mask the color of the photos on the sheets being laminated, nor do they cause the colors to bleed.

    Comments about Staples Letter Size Thermal Laminating Pouches, 5 mil, 100 pack:

    It does not seal tightly around cut outs. This requries that leave a large amount of plastic around the edge of the item in order to maintain the seal. All that extra plastic just gets in the way of paper dolls.

      this 5mil letter size lamination pouch has sealed
      photos and documents for me for a number of years and has always produced a finished sheet which was blemish free and totally protective. a work of art easy to view, store and file. this product when properly used produces a watertight shield that will carry the enclosed contents into the next century.a great way for historians to preserve the happenings of today for the future.

          Comments about Staples Letter Size Thermal Laminating Pouches, 5 mil, 100 pack:

          I've tried other laminate sheets and they are thinner and not as good quality as the ones from Staples. I've also purchased other stores laminate sheets and they have lots of flaws in them and am unable to use some or parts of the laminate sheets. I mostly use these for documents in the workplace but I have also used them for pictures and any outdoor postings that we may need to use. You just have to be careful and not trim the laminate right at the edge of the paper. You need to leave at least an 1/8th of an inch of laminate all the way around the page otherwise if it does get wet it will be destroyed after a short period of time.

          Comments about Staples Letter Size Thermal Laminating Pouches, 5 mil, 100 pack:

          We use this product to put out temporary notices to our condominium community in common areas. It stands up well to the elements as most notices are placed outdoors. I also make "standing notices" that are used for holidays, etc. and I am able to file these for use the following year and they hold up very well. The price is relatively inexpensive as opposed to having signs always made up just for a short period of time. I find it cost effective to order the 100 pack and I don't have to check as often to see if the supply is low.

          • Q:

            My laminator is designed to accommodate pouches up to 0.5 mm thick only. Is this equivalent?

            1 answer

            • A:

              As these laminating pouches are only 0.127 mm thick, they will work fine with your laminator.

              We have a similar item available, may I suggest the Staples item # 677045 Letter Size Laminating Pouches. This is a 50/Pack but the item is a 3 Mil pouch compared to the item # 489526 which is 5 Mils.

              Unfortunately, we do not carry the carrier separately, and it is not included with this item. You may be interested in item 392217, which will include a carrier with the pouches. If you would like assistance with ordering this item, please contact us at 800-333-3330.
