Product Description

Dura-Max Extreme™ is the ultimate vacuum bag. Each bag is made from an extra-thick (30 mil) polyurethane material that has been designed for VeneerSupplies.com using an advanced thermoplastic capable of withstanding pressures exceeding 3,750+ psi and stretching more than 6 times its width and length*. Dura-Max Extreme vacuum bags offer superior resilience and unmatched puncture resistance. Made in the USA.

Each bag is welded with a state-of-the-art custom RF welding machine operating at 7,000 watts and 50 lb/in of pressure. This exact combination of frequency and clamp strength yields the most durable and airtight end-seam available. Each bag then undergoes a series of inspections including a final check that I do prior to shipment.

*Elongation and breaking strength based on ASTMD 412 test method.

Features

• New Flush-Mount Valve Stem - The Extreme vacuum bag also includes our new flush-mount valve stem assembly that allows you to use the full length of the vacuum bag without worry of project surface damage. A specially designed 2.5" diameter 50 mil flange is molded onto the polyurethane valve body and is permanently welded onto each bag. This creates an 80 mil total thickness reinforcement area for maximum durability.
• Vaxcell Infusion - Dura-Max Extreme vacuum bags are infused with a non-transferring lubricant that works in several ways to make vacuum bagging easy and trouble-free. Vaxcell lubricant prevents all woodworking adhesives from sticking to the bag. If any glue gets on the bag, it simply peels right off. Unlike traditional urethane material, Vaxcell infused polyurethane allows the user to easily slide the platens and project panel into the bag without "blocking" or binding. The slippery surface created by Vaxcell makes inserting project panels a breeze.
• Superior Resilience - Months of extensive testing resulted in a custom formulation that is unsurpassed in durability. Dura-Max Extreme bagging material withstands 650% more use than standard 30 mil vinyl.
