Plastic Protective LP Outer Sleeves

[xbart]

Looking for sleeves that will fit single LP snugly. The ones I have found are pretty good for double gate fold and 2 LP sets. Anyone know where to find them?

My favorite by far, have used many, are the 9224 Ultimate Outer 2.5 Record Sleeves. These are not only great quality but also very reasonably priced. If you wait a bit, Sleevecity tends to having 10% and sometimes 15% off sales. Just go to their website and you will see if there is a sale currently going on. Here's the link:

Then search for the 9224 sleeves....no affiliation by the way, just a very satisfied customer and I also really enjoy their inner sleeves. I use the 9235 Diskeeper 2.0 for more ordinary albums and the 312NLPS for my more valuable album inner sleeves.

Thanks!

These are snug for single LPs, as well as being super inexpensive: https://www.amazon.com/RPM-Record-S...&qid=1485137097&sr=8-2&keywords=record+sleeve

Those are 12.75 inches, so they won't be as snug as the 12 & 5/8ths size in the far West catalog.

Far West has the 12 & 5/8ths, 3 mil polypropylene for $11.50 a hundred. On top of that, you can call on the phone and speak to the owner. Super nice guy...NOAF, but a satisfied customer. I'm already deep into my second box of 1000 which costs $85.00. I've not found a bad one yet. I'm using the 12.75 size, and for a single non-gatefold, they are loose.

That sounds like a really good price as well.....are they super clear as well? Some sleeves are a bit opaque, but the ones I've been using from Sleevecity are absolutely clear and the albums are displayed as though they are in a glass "sleeve."

 

[ETLS]

Yes, super clear. There's my first pressing of my Son of Dracula in one of the sleeves.

$0.13 each and they work with any album format. Why spend more?

Well, OP said he was looking for a more snug fit. There are a lot of vendors selling the 12 & 3/4" sleeves.

Far West has both the 12 & 5/8" and the 12 & 3/4".

So what the OP is looking for, would be something smaller than the twelve and three-quarters, and at eleven and a half cents each, (100 pack cost) he'd actually be spending less.

I have the larger 12.75" ones and they are fine for the thicker 2LP albums. The smaller 12.625" ones from Far West look like the ones I'll try.
Thanks
