The Generic Teflon heat strip

This Generic Teflon heat strip can easily fit many other models of domestic vacuum sealers on the market. If you are unsure please contact us with the width of the strip and the length. It is essential to have a Teflon heat strip on your vacuum sealer as if it is not, you will melt through the bag. It will also need to be in good condition, or it may affect certain parts of the seal.

To check the Teflon heat strip seal.

Firstly, it is important to use a good quality roll film or bags as poor quality will not seal properly any way. Do a seal on the end of a piece of roll film. The seal should be clear and the same all the way and no imperfections in it. If there is a fault in the seal then do another seal below or above the first one. If the imperfection is in the same place each time, then the Teflon strip is damaged in that spot. The Teflon heat strip will need replacing.
