What is the best way to seal SWORL silicone vacuum bags?
A. Today’s emerging technology has allowed for improvement in the bag sealing versus traditional methods. The Innovative Reusable Vacuum Bag Seal built into the bag during fabrication is considered a preferred way to seal the bag. Please refer to this SWORL patented technology on our site under “Processes – IRVBS.” The previously preferred method for producing a vacuum tight reusable bag for all reusable bags was “parameter flange sealing.” Parameter seals eliminate the use of tacky tape and the time consuming labor associated with finding leaks in the numerous pleats and folds produced in a typical tape-sealed bag. Following are diagrams from various patents which reference “parameter flange sealing: that explain this technique. NOTE: These are offered for reference purposes only. Each example included below incorporates a patent number and picture. Please contact the appropriate patent holder for additional information and/or consent to use a specific flange seal design as appropriat
