We manufacture this product from high quality EPDM which is a rubber compound suitable for a wide range of every day 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.

This U channel is not self- gripping but can be bonded onto your edge or into the channel to hold itself in place. We recommend using either S136 (Polyurethane) or S137 (white Silicone) or S138 (clear Silicone). These are all available from our website.
