GORTEF supplies PTFE forming tube tape and cross seal jaw tape to fit the PFM Zenith, made to the dimensions you measure off your own machine. It is an aftermarket replacement rather than a genuine PFM Packaging Machinery S.p.A. part.
The Zenith is the vertical form fill seal machine in the PFM range, built for granular product such as crisps and confectionery at up to 80 bags a minute. Tape goes behind the film on the forming tube and across the cross seal jaws, and worn forming tube tape shows up as a vertical seal that will not close.

Which GORTEF Product Fits the PFM Zenith?
How to Order Tape for the PFM Zenith
Tell us the width and thickness of the tape you are stripping off and we will slit a roll to match. GORTEF supplies PTFE tape in 30 metre rolls at any width you need.
OEM tapes are usually specified in mil. That is the same unit as our thou, so a 10 mil OEM tape is a 10 thou GORTEF tape.
Check You Have the Right Machine
Model designations vary between regions and production years. To confirm the PFM Zenith is the machine you are servicing, check the manufacturer's own listing:
