Key Features
Panel Compatibility: This side seal is specifically designed for panels ranging from 1mm to 3mm thick, making it a flexible and reliable choice for numerous automotive and industrial applications.

Self-Gripping Design: One of the standout features of this edge trim is its self-gripping metal spine. The self-grip mechanism eliminates the need for additional adhesive, creating a secure hold without compromising the product's ability to be removed and reused multiple times. This makes installation simple and allows for future adjustments without permanent adhesion.

EPDM provides excellent resistance to UV rays, ozone, air, and most chemicals, making it ideal for both everyday and industrial applications. However, it is not recommended for environments where oil or fuel exposure is likely.
Wide Temperature Range: EPDM material has an impressive operating temperature range of -40°C to +120°C, making it suitable for a variety of conditions, from freezing cold to high heat.
