What is the difference between this and other products, for example Interdynamics MRL-3 Super Seal Leak Sealer for R-134A? Other than the price.

When I was researching stop leak products, I considered MRL Leak Seal. I contacted the company about their product and was told that their product was only available to certified air conditioning specialists. I couldn't find any air conditioning shop in my area that was willing to buy and install this product. As a matter of fact, very few if any of these shops will install any stop leak product. Also, MRL-3 was quite a bit more expensive.

I have no idea but it works. All my gas had leaked out and I had a good leak at the joint to the condenser. I out this in and then gas and my a/c worked till I sold the car 2 years later.

My experience is that it actually works, or works long enough for it to be worth the investment. Case in point, a 97 Volvo w a leak in the behind the dash that other products couldn't fix remained sealed for over two years with the Cliplight product.

All these leak sealers are pretty much similar to each other...they have a special chemical that solidifies when exposed to moisture in air. The theory is if you put these leak sealers into your a/c system and you have a tiny leak then if will be exposed to air moisture through that tiny hole and therefore solidify over the hole sealing the leak. But these leak sealers may or may not work... kind of a gamble. And if it doesn't work, the liquid leak sealers may become solid particles inside your entire a/c system contaminating it. Not worth the gamble to me.

There is actually a significant difference. A quick look at the MSDS for each will show you:http://idqusa.com/datasheets/msds/MRL-3_MSDS.pdfhttp://www1.mscdirect.com/MSDS/MSDS00017/01873652-20030506.PDFYou'll notice, a large portion of the MRL-3 is plain old R-134a refrigerant whereas the cliplight is truly just materials/chemicals for sealing the system.

Hi, when i got them it said they a good for R-12, R-22, R-502. But i am working on different kind off equipment and using for R-414 like regural fridge and R-410 refrigerant. I just need to see pressure on the low and high side. I also both separate gauges to have extra in local store for 15$ each in united refrigeration inc. in longwood. I hope this is helpful.

My Ziploc sealer is in the blink and I just borrowed a friend's FoodSaver sealer. Tested the Ziplock sealer bags on hand and they sealed perfectly because they are also textured. Same for a generic roll I bought for larger bags.

Not really sure I've used the one you mention. I do know that this has been a perfect replacement for the previous one. I've had it for nearly a year now, and there has been little if any degradation or loss of seal. I have had to tighten the mask a bit since I first got it, but it has held up better than the original.

I have a Rival vacuum sealer and I really like the bags. I've used the sealer bags where you cut the bags to the desired length and seal both ends. These eliminate the extra step.

Hello Angela,This is a broad question. There are several ways to apply the EnduraSeal solvent based sealer. I need to know a bit more information about the surface, environment, etc. so feel free to give us a call any time.Thanks, Rob LEnduraCoat888-246-9614

All I can tell you is I've used this product for years and purchased from local retailers as well as online vendors and have not noticed any difference in quality; I wouldn't be surprised if the online vendors buy in huge quantities to lower the cost and fill containers themselves - thus no seal.

I do not know, I use the standard connectors Thomas & Betts Snap-N-Seal RG-59 & RG-6. In the Ideal website, the compressors for RG-59 BNC part # 92-704 are: Omniseal Pro Xl Connector Compression Tool (30-793) Omniseal Pro Connector Compression Tool (30-603) Linear Compression Tool (33-632) $29.00 is the cheaper and according to amazon made &#8203;&#8203;in USA.

I have been perfectly satisfied with the saver I got. Recommend you check to see if the threads on the one you are looking at are thick and will last. Also, make sure the seal ring(s) are replaceable.

All AC systems are engineered specifically for only one refridgerant. This is because each refridgerant has it's own requirements and specifications as to how it must be pressurized, what oils must be used, and what ability it has to efficiently cool. A system built for R22 or R12, will be built to accept different pressures and will use different oils than a system built to run R134. This is why for the most part, refrigerants are not interchangeable between various systems. My understadning, is R134 is not as efficient as R22, and will cause an increased load on the compressor, resulting in system failure.

I don't know. I would get more info first. I used it and it worked. I think it softens and swells seals to stop the leak. If that is the case and your seals are just dried out it should work. Good Luck. Kent

Benriner is a much better qualify tool. It is easier to work with, easier to clean and store, and have a longer life.

There are two consumable parts in this type of bag sealer: The metal strip which acts as the heating element, and the teflon foil which lays over this heating strip so that the heating element does not come into direct contact with the plastic bag you are sealing and just melt right through it. How long these last depend on how much you use the sealer, and what setting you use. No company is ever going to warranty consumable items such as these. The unit comes with one spare of each item, and additional heating strips/teflon covers can be purchased separately. I have used similar sealers ( not this exact model, but the picture looks identical to the one I use, except mine has a sliding cutter attachment) to seal mylar bags for long term food storage. They do a good, but not great, job. The seal is a bit thinner in width than is optimal for sealing mylar bags (~ 1/8 " wide, when ~ 1/4 " wide seal is best). I seal twice, slightly offset, to be sure of the seal. The use of oxygen absorbers will create a light vacuum overnight (assuming you press out as much air as you can before sealing), and the presence of this vacuum is a good test of the seal. I get &gt; 95% success in creating a vacuum-tight seal this way, as long as the heating element and teflon foil are in good condition.

ran across the following reply comment repeatedly copy/paste each time a youtube comment would ask or assert "sub'ing instamorph is cheaper version for doing same thing": "I am sharing a note from the TempTooth people - Our material is not the same as Instamorph. Our material is a dental grade material that has been independently tested by Intertek to be safe for oral use. There is a difference in quality and purity, so just be aware.﻿"

Can't speak from experience, but it does say on the box they will work with other sealers. None mentioned by name.

I ordered the GameSaver after speaking with a customer service rep from FoodSaver. The person I spoke with said it's a more robust model than home units with more powerful suction and, and that it can do over 25 consecutive sealings without a break. It does come with a 10 year warranty compared to the regular models, but that might just be good marketing on their part.

I would not purchase this particular machine.it does not create a good seal and it's cheap because it doesn't do as advertised and in my 40years of office work, I know what the end product should look like.I'll give you mine.
