Polyfil > tyvek.
But I think those would work.

I doubt they would retain that .3 micron rating after autoclaving. In fact, tyvek often opens up the pores, or closes them off in the sterilizer. I no longer use it for jar filters for that reason. Tyvek envelopes are even worse because they're so thin.
Order some synthetic filter disks, or use polyfill. RR

So just getting some free envelopes would be better? The post office is much closer and I would rather save money anyway. Should I just ask for tyvek envelopes? What are they used for, in case they ask me what I will be shipping?
How many of these would I need for 12 quart jars?

So If I am just using them for GE with a self healing inoc point for quart rye berry spawn, I should still use the filter disks and just cut them to the size of GE hole and silicone them to it? Or would envelopes be okay for that, for a single use?

No. Besides that fact it's stealing, that's some poor filter material.
Get polyfil.

Im not going to argue the facts, But a FOAF does use tyvek envelopes and has great success.
He would rather use polyfil though just cant get his hands on it right now and theres no stuffed animals in sight for him to slaughter

I have used polyfil for a long while now with no issues at all. If you have the $$ tho I would recommend getting some synthetic filter discs. A member sent me 8 in a trade and I must say I think I am converted.

I recently used this material. (didn't realize it was not tyvek - I'm new to cultivation and it is my first time doing grain jars) inoculated on 2/26 and so far there is no sign of contamination in any of the jars. I am concerned though after learning that I used the wrong material that things may go south, and have decided it's probably best to not shake at 20-30%. I'll post results of using this material.
