Subject: 350 weight twine?



Alberta, Canada
Anyone use 350 not-strength twine? What do you use it on(crop), and does it make the bales "fragile"?

I hear about it being used commonly in the states, but then I also hear about bales popping from them being either too dry, or too lop-sided.

I use 440/4000 on 100% of my bales, and it's strong enough I can still handle it with just one un-damaged string. Have had bales drop of the loader at 14 feet up and they're still fine.

Reason I ask is because dad got a pallet of 350/4000, and I'm debating using it or not. The only thing I have left to bale is rotary straw, and it needs to stand up to a LOT of abuse via loaders/handling, being handled at least 5 times on my end by some jockies, and still being able to make it out of province in good shape.
