This Weather Strip U Channel is designed to protect and finish exposed metal edges on doors, lids and panels. Made from high-quality EPDM rubber, it provides excellent resistance to water absorption, ozone, dust and environmental wear. The profile reduces vibration, limits minor gaps and helps minimise noise, offering a practical edge trim solution for both trade and DIY projects.
The 18 mm x 4.4 mm profile is ideal for narrower applications where a slim but durable U channel is required. Its flexible EPDM construction allows easy installation onto sheet metal edges and can be cut to length for precise fitment. This edge trim is commonly used across cars, caravans, trailers, trucks, boats, buses, coaches, motorhomes and general engineering projects, delivering both functional protection and a clean finished appearance.
With excellent UV resistance and a wide temperature range, this U channel performs reliably in outdoor and industrial environments. Its resilient design ensures long-term durability in applications exposed to vibration, dust, moisture or mechanical wear.
