What will XES cost you per bale?
Your inputs, your numbers — see if XES actually saves you money.
How is this calculated?
Wrap consumed per bale (ft) = π × diameter × wraps. Net wrap covers the cylindrical surface of the bale, so each wrap is one circumference (π × diameter).
Bales per roll = roll length ÷ wrap-per-bale. Cost per bale = roll price ÷ bales per roll.
We use the standard width × diameter bale-size convention from Texas A&M Extension (Banta, 2022).
XES recommends 2.5–3 wraps per bale on our patented knit. This calculator uses 3 wraps conservatively.
Your actual mileage depends on baler tension, bale density, forage species, and storage conditions. This tool is for estimation only.

Knitted strength.
Field-proven.
XES Extreme uses a patented warp-inserted knitted chain structure — high-tenacity HDPE warp threads locked at every weft cross. It’s the geometry that lets dozens of strips engage on every wrap, so even heavy, wet, or irregular bales hold tight from the field through winter feeding.

How many times should I wrap the net around each bale?
We recommend
- Silage 2.5
- Hay 3.5
- Straw 4
Drier, lower-cohesion crops like straw need more wraps to hold their shape, and longer outdoor storage pushes you toward the high end.
How strong is XES net wrap? Will my bales blow out?
Independently lab-tested, our patented warp-inserted knitted chain structure with reinforced threads handles heavy, wet, and irregular bales without tearing.
Customers consistently report tighter, cleaner bales after switching to XES.
"Wrap works excellent down to two and a half wraps per bale from four on previous brand of wrap. Very satisfied." - B.N., verified buyer
Lower wraps per bale = more bales per roll = lower cost per bale.
Do you offer a warranty or satisfaction guarantee?
Yes. We stand behind every roll. Our warranty covers a minimum of 12 months of UV resistance - your bales stay protected from summer harvest through winter feeding.
If you encounter any quality defects during baling or storage, send us photos and we will analyze the issue and make it right. We also guarantee the exact length on every roll - you will never come up short.
How well does XES hold up stored outside through winter?
Our 12-month UV warranty is the floor, not the ceiling. Customer reports consistently exceed it.
"Holding up well at high elevation extreme climate and UV exposure." - M.S., verified buyer
"Using Extreme netwrap for 2 years now without any issues." - R.H., verified buyer
Our patented HDPE knit is designed for outdoor storage from harvest through winter feeding season.
How long does shipping take and what does it cost?
Shipping is free to the continental US. All orders ship from our California warehouse and most deliveries arrive within 5-7 business days.
For multiple roll orders, deliveries may arrive on different days due to courier schedules - please allow 1-2 extra days for all rolls to arrive.

Wrap Works excellent down to two and a half wraps per Bale from four on previous brand of wrap very satisfied
it’s as good as any i’ve used , and i appreciate the response timing of exs company
I would have gave this review five stars because I really like the net wrap it flows through the Baler like Silk it's a great product. I'm giving it three stars because it took 2 weeks to get a roll, I don't know if it was on FedEx's end or the warehouse either way I would recommend the product just order early.
Net fed and wrapped nicely. High quality wrapping!!
XES® Extreme Bale Net Wrap
I love the price and quality of the wrap. Rolled some hay in not so great conditions (high moisture) and the net performed as expected. I will definitely be ordering more.
Yesterday was my time using my new to me baler it hasn’t been used in several years so net feeding was probably a bit rough we 20-30 mph wind which didn’t help things but overall no complaints with the net it was delivered two days after I ordered from California to S Texas
Very good quality
Very good product for less money
I recieved the netwrap in 4 days after ordering.
I have been using Extreme netwrap for 2 years now without any issues.
Thank you.
