FoodSaver Heat Seal Strips Replacement Kit vs PTFE Fabric Tape 1/2 Inch x 30 ft
Buy the FoodSaver kit if you want pre-cut strips sized for a sealer and a proven fit in FoodSaver and similar machines. Buy the Teflon fabric tape roll if you want one long roll you cut yourself and more material for the same job. Both are PTFE heat tape rated to 500 °F; the real difference is length, width and how much trimming you do. Owners of the FoodSaver strips report easy install and machines sealing like new again.
- Choose the FoodSaver kit if you want three 18-inch strips that cover most sealer models with little waste and a brand that matches FoodSaver machines.
- Choose the Teflon fabric tape if you want a 30-foot roll you can cut to any length and width for one sealer or several.
