Plastic Deep Frame: 52 Pack

It doesn’t get much simpler than removing our plastic deep frames from their shipping box and adding them to your deep hive body. With reinforced frame ears to prevent breakage, these plastic frames stand up better to automatic uncapping and extracting and are resistant to wax moths.

Deep plastic frames and medium plastic frames allow for 6% and 15% more cells for brood and honey production than wooden frames with any foundation.

Features include:

• No assembly required
• Reinforced frame ears minimize breakage
• 15% more brood area/honey production
• Damaged comb can be scrapped and reused
• Standard size works with any uncapper
• Consistent and uniform cell width (5.2mm) — less drone comb

Note:

• We highly recommend applying extra beeswax to the frames. This increases the acceptance of the frames by the bees and entices them to draw the frames out faster. Assembled frames with heavy wax are available for purchase ( heavy wax frames) or you can apply the wax yourself (Instructions for Applying Additional Wax).

• Comes as a pack of 52. Need a smaller quantity? We also sell deep plastic frames by the frame: deep plastic frame each
