Fix Your Vacuum Sealer with OutOfAir's T910-00159 Replacement Gasket

Watch this video on how a new gasket can help fix your sealer problem:

Many customers have tossed their vacuum sealers due to poor suction. Don't waste your money on a new machine! A simple gasket replacement can fix most machines and save you hundreds.

How to Replace the Gaskets

Before you start: leave the top gasket in place for now. It's a much bigger job to replace, and most sealing problems are fixed by swapping just the bottom gaskets. Only come back to the top gasket if the bottom replacement doesn't solve the issue.

Step 1: Remove the old bottom gaskets

Pull the old bottom gaskets out. They're sometimes stuck down with adhesive, so go carefully if they resist. Once they're out, remove every scrap of old foam and adhesive from the channel. Take your time with this part. If any residue is left behind, the new gasket won't seat right.

Step 2: Install the new bottom gasket

Press the new bottom gasket into the channel in this order: left side, right side, then middle. Run your finger along it so it's fully seated, then close the lid. See How to Properly Install Your New Gasket below for the technique that avoids stretching.

Step 3: Replace the top gasket (only if needed)

Heads up: this one is more work. The top gasket is always glued down, so removing it takes more effort, and installing the new one has to be done carefully to keep it aligned. Only do this if the new bottom gaskets didn't restore the seal. See Installing the Top Gasket below for the full procedure and video walkthrough.
