Jim,

We use alot of heat sealers and vacuum sealers at work. If the wire element underneath the sealing surface is still good then replace the sealing surface periodically with a PTFE tape with silicone backing. P/N from mcmaster.com is 76025A731 . This 1/2" should do the job. Description says it's made especially for heat sealers. There's three different thicknesses and different widths

If only it were fish, have you read my reports? Not a single one. I borrowed that fish for my avatar. Maybe a sewer official can at least let me touch one of their butts I could update my avatar...

Any takers?

Ummm.. You may need to clarify what you mean by "touch one of their butts"...

This is the sewer crew we are talking about.. 😂

No clarification needed, I left the ambiguity intentionally. As long as I end up with a new avatar.
