The Correct Tape for the V.500P
The V.500P is a large commercial machine with a 72cm seal bar and a triple seam system. This 3-fold glass-fibre tape is the correct replacement strip for clean release across the full bar width.
Built for a Long Commercial Seal Bar
The V.500P makes three parallel welds across a 72cm bar, giving the strongest, most secure seal LAVA produces. That long triple seam needs tape matched to both the machine and the seam type.
Exact Machine Fit
Fits the LAVA V.500P only, including its large commercial sealing setup.
Three Parallel Welds
Supports the machine's strongest sealing format for high-volume packing.
Stops Bag Sticking
Covers the hot seal bar so bag film releases cleanly during welding.
Match the Tape to the Seam Type
1-Fold Tape
Used on single-seam machines, not the V.500P.
2-Fold Tape
Used on double-seam machines, not the V.500P.
3-Fold Tape
Correct for the V.500P triple seam system.
High-Volume Machines Wear Tape Faster
Like all seal-bar tape, this is a wear part. On a busy commercial machine, it takes heat on every seal and can brown, fray, or build up residue sooner.
Bags Stick to the Bar
Replace the strip if bag film catches or sticks after welding.
Messy or Incomplete Seals
Uneven or rough-looking welds can point to worn or dirty tape.
Scorching, Fraying, or Residue
Visible browning, residue buildup, or fraying means the strip is due for replacement.
Tool-Free Replacement
Disconnect, release holders, replace strip, refit holdersDisconnect the Machine
Switch off and disconnect the V.500P before working around the seal bar.
Release the Holders
Release the holders at each end of the existing tape.
Remove the Old Strip
Peel off the old tape from the triple seam seal bar.
Lay the New 3-Fold Tape
Position the new strip neatly along the full bar width.
Refit the Holders
Secure the strip in place and clean sealing returns.
Clean Welds Across the Full Bar Width
Fitting the correct 3-fold tape gives a clean, even weld across all three seams and across the full 72cm seal bar.
Best For
LAVA V.500P owners whose seals have started sticking or coming out messy, or who want a spare strip on hand for a busy commercial machine.
Fits
Fits the LAVA V.500P only. For other models, see the Sealing Tape range.
