A seal for a dryer having split enclosure drying hoods is disclosed. The hoods are retractable with respect to each other at at least one separation joint. A gasket capable of conforming to the contour of the joint is positioned in the joint. Preferably the gasket is of an inflatable type. The portions of the upper and lower hoods which terminate at the separation joint comprise a bellows, which provide a non-linear path for heat conduction and in which the gasket is positioned.
