I am having an exchange of words with a friend about baler twine. He uses 9000poly I use 7200 poly. I say it is the same twine just that is in different sized rolls. He says there is a difference in strength and that both sized rolls weigh the same.

You lose this argument. It is rated at different knot strength. 9000=140 knot 7200=170 knot,not sure of last roll size but it equals 210knot. I now use the new size 170 knot 7200 in single rolls. alot less tying balls. This is what the brand of poly I use goes by, I don't know on other brands any details. All I know for sure is I would never go back to string. Running both green and red balers and they both tie it fine. Rick

The 7200 is stronger and thicker than 9000. There is also less feet of twine in a roll. I've been told that 7200 is for square balers with throwers, to keep the bales from breaking when they land in the wagon. 9000 is for flat rack stacking of square bales. I have however used 9000 in my 336 JD with kicker and had no trouble.

In sisal twine, the 7200 twine is thicker and stronger, thus with the same weight per ball, you get fewer feet of twine. 7200 is the number of feet you get per ball, vs 9000 feet of the thinner, weaker stuff.
