Abstract: The present invention aims at preventing sanitary tissue paper from being torn when it is removed. The purpose is accomplished by sanitary tissue paper of single-ply or double-plies, characterized in that said paper has a lateral tensile strength on a dry condition of 32 N/m or more, a longitudinal tensile strength on a wet condition 32 N/m or more, and a longitudinal tensile strength on a dry condition which is 2.5 to 3.5 times higher than the lateral tensile strength on a dry condition.

Abstract: Disclosed is a sanitary tissue paper roll wherein, when a sanitary tissue paper roll of two-ply or three-ply is laid on a horizontal surface with its central axis in a horizontal orientation, and a circular plate indenter, having an area of 2 cm2 and being arranged at a center of an upper surface of an outer periphery of a body of the roll, is vertically pressed at least at respective pressing pressures of 0.5 gf/cm2 and 50 gf/cm2, a difference in depths upon this respective pressing is within a range of 2.5–3.5 mm. Also disclosed is a sanitary tissue paper roll made by winding one sheet or two layered sheets of sanitary tissue papers wherein a roll compressibility of the roll is 0.68–0.74 m/cm2, with the roll compressibility being defined as a value obtained by dividing a roll length by a cross section of the roll.
