Simply Analog Antistatic Inner Sleeves (pack of 25)

Simply Analog Antistatic Inner Sleeves at Vinyl Sound Toronto Canada

Simply Analog Antistatic Inner Sleeves are premium vinyl record inner sleeves designed to protect records from dust, static buildup, and surface contamination between plays. Available in packs of 25 in white or black, these sleeves combine a silky high-density plastic liner with 80g heavy gauge thick paper for anti-static performance and smooth record extraction.

Materials and Construction

Each sleeve measures 300mm x 309mm to fit standard 12-inch vinyl records of all pressings and label sizes. The inner plastic layer uses silky high-density polyethylene that generates minimal static charge and allows records to slide in and out without resistance, reducing the risk of surface scratches during handling. The paper outer layer uses 80g heavy gauge stock that is through-dyed rather than printed, eliminating colour streaks at cut edges and glued seams, a common quality issue on lower-grade inner sleeves. Two central holes allow the label area to breathe and enable centred spindle placement without fully removing the record from the sleeve.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are antistatic inner sleeves for vinyl records?

Antistatic inner sleeves are protective sleeves placed inside the outer album jacket to hold the vinyl record. Standard paper inner sleeves supplied with new releases generate static electricity as the record slides in and out, attracting dust to the record surface. Antistatic inner sleeves use a plastic or poly-lined construction to neutralize static charge, keeping the surface cleaner and reducing surface noise during playback. Simply Analog inner sleeves combine a high-density plastic liner with thick paper for both anti-static performance and structural durability.

What size are the Simply Analog Antistatic Inner Sleeves?

The Simply Analog Antistatic Inner Sleeves measure 300mm x 309mm, sized to fit standard 12-inch vinyl records including 140g and 180g audiophile pressings and older original pressings with larger label areas. The two central holes are positioned to allow centred spindle placement without removing the record from the sleeve during play.

What is the difference between paper and poly-lined inner sleeves?

Standard paper inner sleeves generate static electricity as the record slides against paper fibres, which attracts dust to the vinyl surface. Poly-lined or high-density plastic-lined sleeves, such as the Simply Analog Antistatic Inner Sleeves, use a smooth plastic inner surface that significantly reduces static generation and allows for easier, scratch-free record handling. The 80g heavy gauge paper outer layer adds structure and durability, with through-dyed stock that prevents ink contamination at cut edges.

Can Simply Analog inner sleeves be used for 45 RPM singles or 10-inch records?

The Simply Analog Antistatic Inner Sleeves are sized for standard 12-inch vinyl records at 300mm x 309mm and are not intended for 7-inch 45 RPM singles or 10-inch records, which require differently sized sleeves. For 12-inch LP and 12-inch 45 RPM records, these sleeves are fully compatible with all standard pressing weights and formats.

How many sleeves come in each pack?

Each pack contains 25 sleeves, available in white or black. White sleeves offer a classic archival presentation, while black sleeves provide a higher-contrast background that makes light-coloured dust and debris easier to spot before placing the record on the platter.
