Premium Black Open Cell Light Seal Foam Strips Without Adhesive | Package of 10 strips -
170mm L 1.80mm W 1.90mm T
USCamera
premium black polyethylene open cell non-adhesive foam light seal material cut
in strips ready for placement in your film camera. This is the exact same foam
used in our light seal kits without adhesive. Open cell foam is what the camera
manufacturers designed their cameras to use. These foam strips are 170mm long
1.80mm wide and 1.90mm thick. This is common size of foam strips used for SLR
and other film camera body door channels. Perfect fit for Canon AE-1, AT-1,
AV-1, AE1-P, A-1, OM-1, OM-2, OM-3, OM-4 and more.
Premium quality black open cell foam strips without adhesive. To stay where
placed, these foam seals are made to be glued down with a carefully applied
contact adhesive like Pliobond.
See our website for
detailed foam removal and installation instructions. Ebay no longer allows us to
provide a link to instructions here.
What makes a premium USCamera light
seal kit?
USCamera light seal kits were designed and used by technicians years before the
internet. The same quality kits we sell today.
Our kits start with imported premium quality open cell foam from Japan. The same
type of foam camera engineers designed cameras to use. For every kit we make, we
have samples of that equipment ... cameras, film backs and more. Our kits start
with accurate measurements taken directly from the sample. Many times we can
compare those measurements to brand new original factory seals. Then we use
various widths of material to find the perfect fit for the door channels and
where additional seals are required. We guarantee them to fit the equipment
listed. All seal kits are randomly checked for the correct number of seals and
proper fit by actually installing the sample kit.
Why buy a kit? You can save time and be confident knowing you are installing a
proven product. Sure, you can save money by purchasing bulk foam material and
cutting your own kits. We found it takes 1 - 2 hours to measure, cut and fit a
custom cut kit. The more kits you make the better you get. Cutting open cell
foam takes practice. However, even technicians who have cut foam for years have
problems cutting thin strips accurately and consistently.
You can save money and use yarn. Some people suggest that on the internet. Yarn
had a lot of "fuzzies" exposed in the door channel. In the past, we tried yarn
to preserve some collectable cameras perceived value. We found it time consuming
to work with. I am sure you would get better with experience however it is very
difficult to produce a clean install. Small pieces of yarn debris, furry looking
particles, dirt or ? on the negatives......get the picture.
You can bow a cameras back cover and make it hard to close, if too thick of any
material is used in the camera body door channels or back cover. You do not have
to worry about that with a USCamera light seal kit.
Camera design engineers had various materials available to them as camera
designs improved over the years. They used and still use premium grade open cell
foam in imaging equipment.
