Key Features and Benefits
Perfect Fit for the Jaguar XK: This sponge seal is specifically designed to be used as a door hood cantrail seal for the Jaguar XK. With the exact dimensions of 17mm width and 13mm height, it offers a snug and secure fit to provide the required sealing performance. While it’s designed for the Jaguar XK, its adaptable nature makes it suitable for various other automotive and industrial sealing needs.
Sleek and Professional Appearance: The smooth outside skin of this seal not only ensures a neat and finished look but also ensures that the product remains visually appealing, even when it is visible. If you're looking for a functional yet aesthetically pleasing sealing solution, this product is an excellent choice.
Bonding Versatility: This seal can be bonded onto a variety of clean, flat surfaces such as metal, wood, and plastic. It offers excellent adhesion properties, ensuring that the seal stays firmly in place over time. For optimal results, we recommend using a high-quality contact adhesive, such as S136 or A262, which are available on our website. These adhesives ensure a reliable bond that enhances the seal’s overall performance.
Superior EPDM Construction: Manufactured from expanded EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer), this seal is made from a compressible material that is highly durable and versatile. EPDM is known for its excellent resistance to a variety of substances, including chemicals, UV rays, air, and ozone. This makes it ideal for use in environments where exposure to these elements is a concern.
Long-Term Watertight Seal: When compressed by around 30%, the seal forms a long-term watertight seal, ensuring that no moisture can penetrate and damage the underlying surfaces. This feature is particularly important in automotive applications, where weatherproofing is a priority. Unlike some materials, this EPDM seal does not suffer from compression set, meaning it retains its sealing effectiveness over time.
Resistant to Harsh Conditions: The EPDM material offers excellent resistance to many harsh environmental conditions. While it performs exceptionally well against UV radiation, ozone, and air, it should be noted that this seal is not recommended for use in environments that may come into contact with oil or fuel. It has a wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +120°C, making it suitable for both extremely cold and hot conditions.
Flexible and Easy to Use: The seal is supplied in 50m coils and is sold per metre, which makes it highly flexible for different project sizes. You can easily measure and cut the required length, ensuring that you can tackle both small and large sealing tasks without any hassle.
Applications Beyond the Jaguar XK
While the Jaguar XK Rubber for Door Hood Cantrail (DHC) Sponge Seal is designed with a specific automotive application in mind, its benefits extend far beyond that. Its ability to provide a strong, watertight seal makes it ideal for a variety of other uses, including:
Industrial sealing applications: For factories or warehouses that require reliable seals in doors, windows, or other openings.
Marine use: When a durable, water-resistant seal is needed to protect against moisture and harsh environmental conditions.
Home and DIY projects: Ideal for creating seals in windows, doors, or any areas that need protection from the elements.
Conclusion
The Jaguar XK Rubber for Door Hood Cantrail (DHC) Sponge Seal is an exceptional sealing solution that offers durability, versatility, and a neat finish.
