teflon heat strip closeup remove adhesive

I thought the heating element in our Food Saver (v1090) was malfunctioning: air would not suction completely out of the bags and there were spots on the bags that would not seal. Since this is a very old machine and parts are no longer available, I figured we would have to get a new one. After reading some reviews, I ordered the teflon heat tape strips to see if it would fix the problem. I am very pleasantly surprised that it did! Once I removed the old teflon tape, there was some gunk in a couple of places on the heating element, which caused the gaps in the bags. After removing the old adhesive and cleaning the heating element with a paper towel, it looks brand new. The teflon heat tape strip was very easy to install and my frequently-used Food Saver is functioning correctly once again.

I bought this on a last ditch effort to save my food saver from the trash. I was skeptical to say the least. I got them in the mail today 3/4/18 which is a Sunday and that was awesome. The old strip came off as easy as you please. I cut the new strip to length. This is where lack of sleep on my part gets me a bit confused. I did not think to check the width of the strips. They are a little wide for my machine but I think if I am careful I can fix that. After getting the back off, this can be tricky if you let your emotions get the better of you, I placed the strip on and then I let it sit for about 20 minutes. I tried it out and it works so well. The seal was a nice full seal. Thank goodness I don't have to buy another machine. My sealer is Black & Decker Fresh Guard VS200.

How do I install my replacement tape?

Simply remove the tape on your current heating element (make sure to get the residue from the old tape off).
Cut your new OutOfAir FoodSaver sealing strip replacement to the correct size.
Remove the yellow backing from the tape and place it over the heating element (under the element if it's an impulse sealer). Smooth out the tape with your finger to ensure a good bond.

Will OutOfAir replacement tape work with my machine?

Yes, it will. Works in all vacuum and impulse sealers with a heating element for sealing bags.
For vacuum sealers, place the tape directly over the heating element (after removing the current tape).
For impulse sealers, place the tape directly under the heating element (after removing the current tape).

Can you replace the sealing strip on a FoodSaver?

Yes, you can. In fact, it's recommended to replace the tape strip every six months to a year, depending on how often you seal.
If your sealing strip becomes damaged, it can affect the performance of your vacuum sealer. When air leaks in the bag during the sealing process, it’s time to replace the sealing strips.

My machine is having trouble sealing my bags. Do I only need sealing strips to fix it?

Replacing the sealing strips often gets the job done, especially if the heating element is the problem. But if the problem persists and replacing the sealing strips doesn't fix the whole thing, your gaskets may need to be replaced.
Sealing strips and gaskets ensure you get even and perfectly sealed bags. If you change the sealing strips and the sealing problem persists, you may want to buy our FoodSaver repair kit, which comes with sealing strips and gaskets.

How do you remove the old heat tape strips?

You can use a razor blade to get the edge of the tape up. Then you should be able to remove the rest of the tape. You don't want to use the blade to cut, though, because that could harm the heating element. Instead, you may want to use something like Goo Gone to get the adhesive off the machine. Once everything is cleaned up, you may put the new tape in place.
