Nylon (PA) Thermoforming Film — Medical Care Package F2624-M (80μm)
F2624-M is an 80μm NY/PE vacuum thermoforming base film purpose-built for medical device packaging — injection syringes, gauze, cotton pads, suction tubes, and other disposable medical supplies — suitable for either E.O. (ethylene oxide) or gamma (r-ray) sterilization.
A Nylon/PE Base Film Built for Sterile Medical Packaging
F2624-M is the 80μm entry gauge of Intlpak's NE medical series, running as the forming (base) film at a 10–15mm draw. It is produced by computer-controlled co-extrusion with automatic foreign-object detection and thickness control under clean-room standards, and pairs the best formability and pinhole resistance in its gauge class with the transparency and gloss needed for clear device inspection.
Where F2624-M Is Used
- 1
Vacuum Thermoforming Base Film
Vacuum thermoforming base film for disposable medical supplies and medical equipment. F2624-M is the 80μm entry gauge in the NE nylon (PA)/PE series, forming shallow 10–15mm cavities on standard medical thermoform-fill-seal lines while the nylon (PA) layer resists pinholes during the draw.
- 2
Syringe and Gauze Packaging
Injection syringes, gauze, cotton pads, and sputum suction tubes. These flat, low-profile items sit comfortably within the 10–15mm forming depth, and 5.7% haze — the clearest of the four grades — lets clinical staff identify contents without opening the pack.
- 3
Shallow-Draw Single-Use Devices
Other single-use medical devices requiring shallow vacuum-formed packaging. Tensile modulus 2400/2300 kg/cm² holds the cavity wall in shape after forming, and the nylon (PA) side is corona treated so printed or laminated top webs bond reliably.
- 4
E.O. and Gamma Sterilization
Packaging lines requiring E.O. (ethylene oxide) or gamma (r-ray) sterilization compatibility. The film tolerates both routes, so a device maker can switch sterilization method without qualifying a different base film. Sterile barrier validation is performed by the device maker on the finished pack.
Full Specifications — Nylon/PE Medical Thermoforming Film Series
F2624-M is the 80μm shallow-draw grade in Intlpak's NE nylon/PE medical thermoforming film family — an 80 micron medical thermoforming film for a 10–15mm forming depth, with 5.7% haze, suitable for E.O. or gamma (r-ray) sterilization. The table below shows F2624-M alongside the deeper-draw 110–150μm grades in the same series.

Questions About F2624-M
F2624-M takes both E.O. and gamma — how does it compare with the E.O.-only F4538?
It depends on whether your sterilization route might change. F4538 (MPP/PE, 80 μm) is E.O. only; F2624-M matches it at 80 μm and the same 10–15 mm shallow draw while accepting E.O. and gamma. If your line may switch methods, or different markets use different processes, F2624-M keeps that option open.
Does gamma irradiation yellow or embrittle nylon?
Managing that is exactly what a medical-grade nylon formulation is for. F2624-M is specified as gamma (r-ray) compatible, meaning the formulation holds mechanical properties and acceptable appearance at standard doses. Dose, dose rate and storage conditions all affect outcomes, so qualify post-sterilization performance and ageing at your actual dose before adoption.
What is F2624-M's forming limit, and what if I exceed it?
15 mm. Beyond that, step up: F2615-M (120 μm) covers 10–30 mm, F2606-M (150 μm) covers 40–50 mm, and F2703 (110 μm) covers 20–40 mm. All four are dual E.O./gamma compatible, so changing depth doesn't change your sterilization validation logic.
What top web pairs with F2624-M?
A breathable one — medical-grade dialysis paper or Tyvek — allowing sterilant exchange while maintaining the microbial barrier. F2624-M is the bottom web, thermoformed into the device cavity, and seal parameters should be qualified together with your sterile barrier system under ISO 11607-related requirements.
Does F2624-M's manufacturing environment meet medical packaging expectations?
It is produced in a GMP clean-room under an ISO 9001 quality management system with raw-material traceability. Medical packaging often requires additional cleanliness class, particulate or bioburden documentation for regulatory submission — tell our engineering team your regulatory pathway and we will provide what your filing needs.
Which sterilization methods can a medical forming film take?
It depends on the film, so check before specifying. Intlpak's nylon/PE medical grades, F2624-M among them, are suitable for E.O. or gamma (r-ray) sterilization; the MPP/PE grades F4538 and F4539 are stated for E.O. only. F2624-M is the 80 μm grade rated for a 10–15 mm forming depth with 5.7% haze, for syringes, gauze, cotton pads and similar disposables.
Does the film supplier certify the sterile barrier of the finished pack?
No, and no film supplier can. Sterile barrier performance is validated by the device manufacturer on the finished package, under your own process and sterilization cycle. Intlpak supplies the film to ISO 9001, ISO 22000 and HACCP certification with GMP clean-room production, and states each grade's sterilization compatibility and forming depth. Standards such as ISO 11607 are met at the finished-pack level, not by the film alone.
