Abstract

This relates to the packaging of a casing stick within a sheathing in a manner wherein the casing stick may be readily handled in the required manner without undue damage to that end which is to be telescoped over the filling horn, while at the same time permitting the casing stick to be subjected to desired treatments such as moisturizing as is required, prior to the filling of the casing with a selected product. One end of the casing stick is provided with a calibrated ring which includes a sleeve that telescopes within the end of the casing stick and which has at one end a flange of a size generally to prevent external damage to the pleats of the casing stick. The sheathing of the package is inter-wound with the calibrated ring and the calibrated ring is provided with resilient fingers for locking the calibrated ring and the sheathing material on the filling horn.
