[QUOTE="Simon Chiles, post: 5217724, member: 1233"] It’s a bit of an arbitrary figure, nothing really to do with the length more a description of its thickness. If you actually weighed packs of string from different manufacturers you’d find quite a wide variation in weight, which is probably a better clue as to how many bales you’d actually get. I can’t remember exactly, because I haven’t used 12,000 for about 15 years, but I thought I got 600 bales ( 1m long ) out of a pack, 500 bales out of 10,000 ( hay twine ) and 450 bales out of 9250 ( trucker twine ). We use 9250 trucker twine in the large spools from Cordex so that three packs loaded into the baler allow us to do 2700 bales before we need to load more string, meaning that most days we only need to stop once to re string.
