Key Features and Specifications
Panel Thickness Compatibility: Fits 1mm to 3mm thick panel edges.
Bulb Diameter: 15mm sponge sealing bulb for optimal compression and sealing.
Coil Length: Available in a 50m coil and sold per metre for custom sizing.
Material: Manufactured from high-quality EPDM rubber for superior performance.
Watertight and Versatile Applications
This edge trim with a top seal is engineered to provide a watertight seal, making it a popular choice as a rear door seal for vehicles such as the VW T4. Its adaptability, however, extends beyond automotive use, making it suitable for a range of industrial applications where a secure, watertight barrier is essential.
To achieve the best sealing performance, it is recommended to compress the sponge bulb by approximately 30%. This ensures a tight seal while avoiding a compression set that could compromise durability.
Self-Gripping Design for Easy Installation
A standout feature of this product is its self-gripping metal spine, which eliminates the need for additional adhesives. The metal spine allows the seal to securely grip the panel edge, maintaining its position under various conditions.
Installation is straightforward and can be accomplished by tapping the seal onto the panel edge using your hand or a soft-faced hammer. The secure grip ensures a firm hold, yet the trim can be easily removed and reused as needed.
Built to Withstand Harsh Environments
Crafted from EPDM rubber, this top seal is designed for longevity and resistance to challenging environmental factors. EPDM offers:
Resistance to UV, ozone, and air exposure: Ideal for outdoor and industrial environments.
Temperature tolerance: Operates effectively within a range of -40°C to +120°C.
Chemical resistance: Resists most chemicals, ensuring reliable performance.
However, it is important to note that EPDM is not recommended for use in environments where it may come into contact with oil or fuel.
Perfect for Automotive and Industrial Use
