Running Board Tread - 12mm x 7.8mm (RBT2012)

This running board tread is 12mm by 7.8mm and sold by the linear metre. Although its primary use is within the automotive industry on various older and classic vehicles, the unique shape makes this section ideal for other marine or industrial applications. The smooth black appearance allows this seal to be used as a neat sealing solution in projects where the product will be visible.

These seals clip into the running board or channel to provide grip and decorative appearance. It should hold itself in the channel but can be further secured using a good quality adhesive (S136) or silicone sealant (S138). These products are available via our website.

We manufacture this product from high quality EPDM which is a flexible rubber compound suitable for a wide range of everyday and industrial applications. This material has a good modular resistance to most substances including most chemicals, UV, air and ozone but is not recommended in environments which may come into contact with oil or fuel. EPDM is around the same hardness (70° Shore A) as the rubber on a car tyre and has an operating temperature range between -40°C to +120°C.
