Description
Our Pretubed Natural Hog Casings 29-32mm are the easiest and fastest way to stuff sausage. Packed in salt, the plastic sleeves easily slide on the stuffing tubes. After soaking them with the plastic still on, simply slide one end over your stuffing tube and pull the plastic off the other end.
The casings are sourced from North American hogs only.
What Are Pretubed Casings
Pretubed casings come already strung on individual plastic sleeves. Since the casings are already individually separated, they are a lot easier to slide onto the stuffing tube.
One pound of meat will use about 2.5 feet of casing. The casings are packed in purified salt and have an indefinite shelf life when stored in the refrigerator. Flush and soak in tap water before using.

Good product.

I have been using these for some time – while a bit more expensive, they’re really convenient especially if you don’t do this all the time.

Love your products including the spices. However using small amounts is difficult because of “classification”. I solved the problem with a small easily constructed “splitter”. Offered the design, no strings attached, to your cust. serv. people and was ignored. Offer still stands if you are interested.

The casings worked fine for us. We wish they could have been shipped a bit more promptly, but when they arrived, they were as good as any we have found elsewhere.

Same as above. Thank you.

I mix sausage in 15# containers 3 at a time by myself. Using the pre-tubed allows me to complete it quicker why the meat stays cold.
Daniel R. (verified owner) –
This was my first time making sausage and these pretubed were very easy to use. I also had 24mm sheep casing and that didn’t work out at all.

Good quality casing
John (verified owner) –
Worked as expected, easy to load onto tube having been already pre-tubed. Saved lots of time.
John Eaton (verified owner) –
This was the first time we have used pretubed casing. For a relative novice it made loading csing very easy.
Mac (verified owner) –
These pretubed casings made loading onto the stuffing tube a breeze. I wasn’t careful picking up the casing tube after soaking and some of the casing slipped off so I got a taste of loading an untubed casing. The only suggestion I would make is to put a sticker on the jar cover saying – must soak for 24 hours.
