Bar Sealer?
Yes. In order to eliminate the build up of residue to the seal wires, they must be covered with 1/2 width, 3mil Teflon tape. Run the tape along the entire length of the seal wire on both side and front. Adhere the tape to the seal bar backing (either a transite strip or beads depending on which model of sealer). Make sure the seal wires are covered completely with the Teflon tape. This will assure consistent performance. It may be necessary to adjust the dwell setting and the temperature setting to achieve strong seals. Do this by setting both control knobs to -0-, then increase the temperature and dwell until clean and strong seals are consistently being made.
