Description:
Self Grip Side Seal With 17.5mm Diameter Bulb - To Fit 9.5mm Panel: A Versatile, Durable Solution for Watertight Seals
When it comes to creating a reliable and long-lasting seal on panels, the Self Grip Side Seal with a 17.5mm Diameter Bulb is a top choice for a wide variety of applications. Designed to fit a 9.5mm thick panel edge, this edge trim with side seal is ideal for ensuring a watertight barrier for windows, doors, hatches, lockers, enclosures, and cabinets.
Key Features and Benefits
Panel Compatibility: The Self Grip Side Seal is designed to fit snugly onto 9.5mm thick panels. This makes it a versatile solution for many commercial and industrial environments, where precision and durability are essential.
17.5mm Diameter Sponge Bulb: The product features a 17.5mm diameter sponge bulb that works to create a robust, watertight seal. To achieve optimal sealing performance, it is recommended that the sponge bulb be compressed by approximately 30%. This compression ensures a good seal and helps avoid the issue of compression set, a common problem in seals that lose their effectiveness over time.
Self-Gripping Metal Spine: One of the standout features of this edge trim is its self-gripping metal spine. The metal spine allows the seal to stay securely in place without requiring additional adhesive. This not only simplifies installation but also ensures that the seal remains intact even after repeated use. Furthermore, this self-gripping design means the seal can be removed and reused as needed, offering great flexibility for maintenance and repair tasks.
Easy Installation: Installing the Self Grip Side Seal is a straightforward process. It can be easily fitted onto the edge of a panel by tapping it on with your hand or a soft-faced hammer. This quick and simple installation process makes it an ideal choice for professionals looking to save time while ensuring a durable, effective seal.
Durability and Material Quality
Manufactured from high-quality PVC and expanded EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer), this product is built to withstand harsh conditions. Both materials are known for their durability and resilience, making them perfect for a wide range of applications across marine, automotive, and industrial sectors. The expanded EPDM offers excellent flexibility, while PVC provides structural integrity and resistance to physical wear.
The combination of these materials results in a seal that can endure exposure to UV rays, air, ozone, and certain chemicals, making it ideal for outdoor and industrial environments. However, it is important to note that this seal is not recommended for environments where exposure to oil or fuel may occur, as these substances can compromise the material's integrity.
Temperature Resistance
The Self Grip Side Seal is engineered to perform in a wide range of temperatures. Its average operating temperature range is from -10°C to +60°C, allowing it to function effectively in various climates and environments. Whether it’s protecting sensitive components in extreme cold or heat, this seal will maintain its performance and provide the protection needed.
Applications
This edge trim with side seal is versatile and well-suited for numerous uses. Some of the most common applications include:
Marine: For sealing windows, doors, and hatches on boats and marine vessels to prevent water leakage.
Automotive: Ideal for use in car doors, trunks, and windows to ensure a watertight fit.
