Jim,

We use alot of heat sealers and vacuum sealers at work. If the wire element underneath the sealing surface is still good then replace the sealing surface periodically with a PTFE tape with silicone backing. P/N from mcmaster.com is 76025A731 . This 1/2" should do the job. Description says it's made especially for heat sealers. There's three different thicknesses and different widths
