Key Features and Benefits:
14mm Sponge Sealing Lip: The self-gripping side lipseal features a 14mm wide sponge lip, designed to compress by approximately 30% during installation to create an effective seal. This ensures that the seal is tight and secure, enhancing the performance of your window, door, or hatch installation by keeping moisture, dust, and air out.
Self-Gripping Metal Spine: Unlike other trims that require adhesives or fasteners, this edge trim is designed with a self-gripping metal spine. This feature allows it to hold firmly in place on panel edges without the need for additional adhesives, saving time and effort during installation. Additionally, the self-gripping feature enables easy removal and reusability, making it a versatile solution for temporary or permanent installations.
Easy Installation: Installing the Self Grip Side Lipseal is simple and straightforward. You can easily tap it into place using your hand or a soft-faced hammer. This ease of installation ensures minimal hassle, reducing installation time and potential damage to the trim.
Made from High-Quality EPDM Rubber: The trim is manufactured from high-quality EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer), a durable rubber compound known for its resistance to various elements. EPDM is highly resistant to UV rays, ozone, and weathering, making it suitable for outdoor use. However, it is important to note that EPDM is not recommended for environments that involve contact with oil or fuel.

Temperature Range: The EPDM material used in this lipseal is designed to withstand extreme temperature conditions, with an operating temperature range of -40°C to +120°C. This makes it suitable for a wide variety of industrial and everyday applications, even in harsh environments where temperature extremes are common.

Coil Length and Availability: This product is sold per metre and comes in a convenient 50m coil, ensuring that you can purchase just the right amount of trim for your project needs. The flexible nature of the coil allows for easy storage and use in multiple applications.

Applications:
The Self Grip Side Lipseal is an ideal solution for creating tight, secure seals on various panel applications, including:

Windows and Doors: Prevent drafts and leaks, ensuring energy efficiency and protection from the elements.
Hatches and Lockers: Ideal for sealing the edges of hatches or lockers, ensuring they stay airtight and secure.
Enclosures and Cabinets: Used to seal enclosures and cabinets, providing protection against water and dust ingress.
Durability and Reusability:
One of the standout features of this edge trim is its reusability. Thanks to the self-gripping metal spine, the seal can be easily removed and reused multiple times without losing its effectiveness. This makes it an ideal choice for applications where a temporary yet secure seal is needed, such as during maintenance or temporary installations.
