Natural Sheep Casing 18/21mm 90m

Stampede Natural Sheep Casings 18–21mm are designed for producers requiring a consistent, fine-diameter natural casing for small-format sausages. Commonly used for twiggy sticks and thin links, these casings provide reliable performance during stuffing and cooking while maintaining a traditional natural finish.

Each pack contains approximately 90 metres of casing, carefully selected, salted and vacuum packed to maintain quality during storage and handling. With an estimated fill capacity of around 17kg, the pack will typically produce approximately 170 sausages, depending on portion size and link length.

Proper preparation is essential before use. A thorough soak softens the casing and ensures smooth handling on the stuffing tube. These casings are suitable for both commercial butcher shops and experienced home butchers who value consistency and control in sausage production.
