Questions about PTFE Tape / Teflon Tape for Vacuum, Hand and Impulse Sealers (1/2-inch x 30 feet) - Fits FoodSaver, Seal A Meal, Weston, Cabella's by IMPRESA

I seen this and thought it was interesting. But I don't know what this is for can you explain it to me. Is it for a machine or for help ceiling bags?

Answer: The tape is for vacuum sealing machines such as those manufactured by Foodsaver (see www.foodsaver.com). The tape is applied to the sealing machine, over the heater strip. This provides a smooth surface that will not stick to the bag being sealed. The original tape eventually gets wrinkles from repeated use, making it difficult to seal the bags well. Assuming everything else functions on the machine, replacing the teflon tape will restore your machine to perform like new.

Answer: It goes over the wire element on impulse sealers to protect against poly bag sticking when heat is applied

Answer: It goes on the machine to ceiling the bags,

Answer: The common use for PTFE Tape is to provide a seal between threaded plumbing pipes to prevent any leaks. One will use this when you screw on a shower head to a hose or to a pipe for example. The tape will be applied by wrapping it around the threads before attaching the receiving end.

Answer: It's the tape that covers the seal strip on a vacuum sealer(food save, etc). Just cut it to length

Answer: ð` Hello!

how thick is the tape?

Answer: Same thickness as scotch tape

Answer: The tape is just a hair thicker but I like the thickness I think it actually works better the the original tape that came with my food saver!

Answer: 6 mils made in USA

Answer: Appears to be a direct replacement for the original, so far it is working as the original did.

does this fits cuisinart VS100?

Answer: I don't have that model so I can't say it does for certain. I think it would though as all the foodsaver models I've seen have an identical heater strip section.

Answer: As far as I know yes. Just cut to length, peel backing, and place on top of existing old tape.

How smooth is the un-sticky, non-adhesive side of this tape? Thinking of buying it for my Klask game.

Answer: I don't know what a Klask game is but the telflon tape is pretty smooth on the non adhesive side

Answer: It is very slick and smooth.

Answer: I think it is smooth, not lumpy or inconsistent.

Answer: It's very smooth.

Answer: Very. Works great on my sealer

which manufacturer made this tape?

Answer: I don’t know that answer. Check on Amazon’s product description page it should be listed there.

What is the maximum temperature it can be used at?

Answer: I am not sure but it works fine on my Food Saver Vacuum sealer.

does this work on a cabella's model 20-108 vac sealer

Answer:

Answer: I do not know if this Teflon Tape will work on your Sealer. You may want to contact the manufacturer of your model. We used it on our Food Saver Sealer and it worked perfect.

Answer: Don't know about that model but it worked fine on my FoodSaver V3425.

Answer: not sure

Will it work on a Vacmaster VP 215?

Is this tape good to use on a commercial sealer of shrink wrap machine ? What is the maximum temperature it takes ?

Answer: I use mine on a commercial sealer and the tape is holding up well. Much better than the OEM tape I bought previously. I don't know max temp. but it is not turning dark and falling apart like the original tape.

Answer: I do not know if this tape can be used for commercial sealer. However we bought this tape to replace it on our Food Sealer machine. We use the heavy plastic bags that are designed for tis Food Saver and the fusion is very tight.

Answer: Yes use on any machine Temp is up to 500 F Sealer Supply

Answer: Don't know the maximum temperature, but this is good to om commercial sealers.

Answer: I have used it on two of my Food Savers with great results. I removed the original tape that came with the Food Savers and this is much better. I don't know the temp question but I have used it for 45 minutes nonstop sealing bags with no problems

I'm using this for another purpose. Is there a datasheet or something available regarding the max temperature the material and adhesive are rated for?

Answer: I did not get any information with the tape, but it is heavy duty and quite thick. It works well on my vacuum sealer.

Does this work for the balloon sealers such as premium balloon accessories maxi seal 8 inch model?

How do I remove old tape

Answer: The tape shouldn't be hard to peel off. Use a plastic knife to start it or something that won't scratch. I used cigarette lighter fluid to remove the glue residue.

Answer: No problem just pull it off, make sure when you install ty new tape leave enough to cover the end of the new tape about 1/2 inch on each end to cover the end.

Answer: Carefully peel it off backwards. Cut the new strip to ensure that the ends fold down to the sides just a little bit. Once done take your finger and run it across the tape to ensure it’s seated right.

Answer: I used an xacto knife and peeled it up, then applied a cotton-ball wet with lighter fluid to remove sticky residue.

Answer: It should peel off,you might have to clean off any residue. I used alcohol to clean mine.

Answer: Razor scraper

Answer: not sure try alcohol

Product reviews of PTFE Tape / Teflon Tape for Vacuum, Hand and Impulse Sealers (1/2-inch x 30 feet) - Fits FoodSaver, Seal A Meal, Weston, Cabella's by IMPRESA

MOSES : ELIMINATES THE STICK!

FOOD SAVERWORKS JUST LIKE NEW NOW! THE TAPE SURE ELIMINATES THE BAGS STICKING TO THE HEATER BAR. ELIMINATES HAVING TO SLIDE A KNIFE BETWEEN HEATER AND BAG TO GET IT FREE. MY SON SAYS HE HAS A USE FOR THIS TAP ON HIS 3D PRINTER!

Just-Monica : Fixed the sealing problems on our Foodsaver machine

Our Foodsaver packages weren't staying sealed -- my husband thought the machine was worn out, it's a pretty old model. Then we realized the Teflon tape on the heated wire that seals the plastic was worn out. I took off the old stuff, cleaned it well and replaced it with this tape - and it works great again!

Lawrence Campbell : Repair made easy with this tape!

Great product and price,very happy with the repair this tape made to my wife’s food saver.

Amazon Customer : Worked for me. I have a food saver vaccum ...

Worked for me. I have a food saver vaccum packer that is approximately 10 years old. The original teflon tape covering the heating element developed a crimp that prevented bags from sealing. Used this tape to replace the original and it seems to have fixed the problem.

C stack : as described

works well

BRIAN SANDS : Don't be fooled by other brands

This worked perfectly in my Weston Pro 2300. And for a fraction of what Weston wanted for a few strips or Walton's.

sebastien : fast delivery

good product

Amazon Customer : Works better than the factory tape (which was barely holding when ...

Works better than the factory tape (which was barely holding when the unit came in). Fixed my issues with inconsistent seals without breaking the bank. Very happy.

Susie : A must have

Its good to buy a roll since these do get wrinkles if used a lot. Makes sealing go a lot smoother.

Oh Susannah : Works great!

Works great and easy to use!

Amazon Customer : Easy to apply

Saved me a fortune compared to another companies "repair kit". Easy to apply.

D. Zellner : Exactly what I needed.

It was just what I needed to repair my foodsaver. Worked like a charm.

Lawrence Campbell : Repair made easy with this tape!

Great product and price,very happy with the repair this tape made to my wife’s food saver.

nic hurd : Great, thick tape

Awesome. Works fine n it's just thin

Vin : Economical

Nancy & Greg : If your Vacuum Sealer does not seal well, don't replace the machine, buy this teflon tape.

My mother uses her Foodsaver so often the tape wore away in spots and it sealed erratically. Since she is an "ahem" older person, of the generation that fixes things instead of throws them away, she called Foodsaver about fixing it. They said it could not be repaired. I found this tape and risked $10. to try it for her. All I had to do was remove the old tape and all tape residue. UNPLUG IT FIRST!. ;) Then I laid the tape down over the wire and Tada!, her Foodsaver works like new! The roll contains enough to probably fix many Foodsavers. The tape is a little wider that the original tape I removed but fit well and does not change the way the Foodsaver works.

Just-Monica : Fixed the sealing problems on our Foodsaver machine

Mary H. : Money saved!

I had already looked through the replacements parts and couldn't find anything to fix my foodsaver. I noticed the teflon tape was peeling up on the heating element. I hit up foodsaver and told them what was going on and they told me the machine was toast and there were no replacement parts. They didn't sell anything. I said "so, my great machine is now junk?". There reply was that they apologize but it was done and to buy a new one. So, after verifying it was the tape, I simply googled it, right to Amazon and ordered this stuff. Took all of 1 minutes to do the complete fix and the machine is as good as new. And there is so much of it that I can replace it every 6 months and I won't run out.

Gadg' guy : BAG SEALER HEAT STRIP TAPE

Good price on more than enough heat strip tape. After thorough cleaning and prep the tape laid down nice and smooth and my vacuum sealer seals like new again.

Amazon Customer : Worked for me. I have a food saver vaccum ...

Nancy & Greg : If your Vacuum Sealer does not seal well, don't replace the machine, buy this teflon tape.

William B. : Beward

We have a vacuum sealer. The tape was coming off. We bought replacement that was supposed to be specifically made for this model. It only stayed on a few minutes and did not work. Bought this tape and it seems to fit well when cut. Unfortunately, we cannot get the vacuum sealer to seal. Don't know if it's the tape or the rubber, which we also replace.

rod searcy : Worked perfect

Just wat I needed

duneatic : Heat sealer tape

Product worked great and cheaper than factory replacement

MACRX : Worked. Saved my food saver.

Replaced the food saver heating strip and worked like new.

Gadg' guy : BAG SEALER HEAT STRIP TAPE

Good price on more than enough heat strip tape. After thorough cleaning and prep the tape laid down nice and smooth and my vacuum sealer seals like new again.

Mark E. Waugh : Perfect replacement for Foodsaver

Exactly what my food sealer needed. Make sure you clean the element after removing the old tape with rubbing alcohol before putting on this tape.

wolf443 : Best buy

Just what I needed to breathe life back into my Food Saver.

S Maurer : I am very pleased, as I have gone through four Food Savers

I removed the old tape strip from my Food Saver heat seal element, cleaned the area with 99% alcohol and a cotton ball. After allowing things to evaporate, I trimmed a piece of the Impresa PTFE/Teflon tape on the left end so it could drop behind the element housing and laid placed it over the element. It is now a new sealer.

I am very pleased, as I have gone through four Food Savers, all with this issue. So glad I found this product.... Recommended!!

Michael M. : Excellent replacement

Replacement was spot-on.

Floyd Webb : Heat strip tape

Satisfied

Nicki D. : I’d buy again!

Great product! There was a slight problem with order but seller was super responsive and took care of the issue very quickly.

Fred YZ : Tefon for sealer

Replaced the teflon tape on an old 16" sealer. Tested and worked great. Used on another too---great. Really, pleased with this. Able to fix units with old and burnt teflon on sealers.

TJ : Will buy again

Does exactly what it’s supposed to do, great value!

Dov Kahana : Good quality

Quality as expected & fast shipping.
Great product!

EJPSview : but wrinkles easy on application on vacuum sealer

Works okay, but wrinkles easy on application on vacuum sealer.

wolf443 : Best buy

Just what I needed to breathe life back into my Food Saver.

Pastel Gran : Great tape

I did not have a way to use my Cabela commercial vacuum sealer because they no longer carry parts. All I needed was the tape. Glad to know your company makes this product. Thank you so much.

IAK : Very good product

We have an older Foodsaver Model (15 yrs old, at least) and the Teflon Tape gave out. We ordered the PTFE Tape from Amazon. Once we received it we replaced the worn out one. It was easy to replace, it was the correct size we needed and works perfectly! We recommend this product.

rod searcy : Worked perfect

Just wat I needed

Amazon Customer : Five Stars

great

Pat : Works as expected

Tape stuck well to the sealer bar surface

krafter : Glad I bought this...

Great product so far. Easy to install in my foodsaver. Works well sealing bags.

Dave Rosenhauer : Great replacement for old Seal a Meal

Easy install works great.

Amazon Customer : Works better than the factory tape (which was barely holding when ...

Works better than the factory tape (which was barely holding when the unit came in). Fixed my issues with inconsistent seals without breaking the bank. Very happy.

Victor E : Not so Impresa with this!

It does what it is supposed to, somewhat. Bags sometimes stick to tape, so I don't think this is near as good as the original tape which I will have to source at some point to get my machine to function properly.

tmagic : Helped the Food Saver

Noticed the old tape had some "wrinkles" in it and was noticing the vacuum pack wasn't sealing very well. Thought maybe the "wrinkles" in the tape could cause the problem. Looked at pricing and for the money this roll was better than buying a 3 pack of shorter pieces. Carefully removed the old tape, cut the new tape to size. Installed it and now my Food Saver is sealing like a champ. The little wrinkles were enough to keep a good heat seal from happening. Plus with all the extra I have If I notice any kind of "wrinkle" forming I can remove and put a new piece of tape on. Very happy cause my machine is now working like brand new!

S Maurer : I am very pleased, as I have gone through four Food Savers

Capron : Works Great!

Works like a charm. Now our FoodSave seals like new. Bags slip right in again. Sure beats buying a new machine. Try it. This stuff fixed our FoodSaver. Wish I'd known about it before my last FoodSaver died.
