Teflon (PTFE) cloth for sealing machines is a high-temperature resistant, non-stick, and durable fiberglass fabric used to cover heating elements on impulse or constant heat sealers. Typically 0.08mm to 0.3mm thick, it prevents plastic films from sticking to the sealer, ensuring clean, efficient seals and protecting the machine's heating element.
Key Features and Benefits
High Temperature Resistance: Withstands temperatures up to 572°F (300°C), making it ideal for continuous industrial, commercial, and home vacuum sealing applications.
Non-Stick Surface: The PTFE coating minimizes friction, prevents plastic buildup on the sealer bar, and simplifies cleaning.
Durable & Strong: Manufactured from robust, heat-resistant fiberglass, it provides longevity and reduces the need for frequent replacements.
Excellent Insulation & Chemical Resistance: Provides high dielectric strength and resistance to chemicals and solvents.
Versatile Compatibility: Suitable for various machines, including hand, foot, and vacuum sealers, often used in food packaging and industrial sealing.
Common Specifications & Applications
Material: PTFE Coated Fiberglass Fabric
Types: Available in both adhesive (tape) and non-adhesive (cloth) rolls.
Dimensions: Common widths range from 1 inch (30mm) to 2 inches (50mm) or more, with lengths commonly found in 10-meter rolls.
Common Applications: Impulse heat sealers, vacuum sealer machines (e.g., FoodSaver), packaging machines, and heat sealing, hot melt machines.
Installation Tips
Simply clean the sealing surface, cut the Teflon cloth to size, and place it directly on top of or underneath the heating wire as needed.
Available as pre-cut strips for specific machine sizes
