Most likely not....it might be the same type of felt as used in 35mm 
cartridges, but I have never heard any proof that the dark-slide slot 
also leaks IR. Either the felt is different, or the tightness is much 
larger.

Btw, for anyone interested: 
I will soon have another Bronica ETRSi 70mm back for sale. 
Mint, original box+manual, only used for 4 rolls, US$350, including 1 
cartridge.
Also still have both a Linhof and Kindermann 70mm loader (US$150 & 
US$100), as well as a Kindermann SS 70mm reel (no tank), for US$50.

Mail me if you are interested.
