Common Questions
Q: What bag materials can this impulse sealer handle?
A: This sealer works with polypropylene (BOPP/cello), polyethylene (LDPE/HDPE), PVC, and shrink films. The variable heat control lets you adjust for different materials and thicknesses, typically 1.5 mil to 4 mil.
Q: What's the maximum bag width for an 8-inch sealer?
A: You can seal bags up to approximately 7.5 inches wide. The bag lip needs to lay flat on the sealing bar with slight overhang on both sides.
