Materials
What are rubber T-profiles?
Rubber T-profiles are extruded sealing profiles with a T-shaped cross-section. They are used wherever edges, gaps or joints need to be elastically sealed, compensated or mechanically guided. The characteristic T shape allows easy clamp-in or slide-in mounting and effective separation or sealing of two components.
Our T-profiles are manufactured by continuous extrusion. This ensures high dimensional accuracy and consistent quality, and allows both standard cross-sections and individual special geometries to drawing.
Rubber T-profile seals: applications
- Cover and separating profiles in machine and plant engineering
- Door and flap seals in vehicles, housings or control cabinets
- Seals for glass panes, plastic panels or sheet metal cladding
- T-joint profiles for covering and sealing joints and gaps
- Guide elements for moving components
- Finishing profiles in technical equipment or assembly units
Materials: elastomers for every technical requirement
We manufacture T-profiles from various elastomers and thermoplastic elastomers (TPE), in solid or sponge rubber. The choice depends on the thermal, chemical and mechanical load of your application:
- EPDM: excellent UV, ozone and weather resistance, ideal for outdoor use
- NBR: resistant to oils, greases and fuels, ideal for machinery and vehicle construction
- CR (neoprene): good ageing and flame resistance, resistant to chemicals
- NR/SBR: good abrasion resistance and elasticity for mechanically stressed applications
- Silicone (VMQ): temperature-stable up to +200 °C, for medical technology and the food industry, FDA or BfR compliant on request
- Sponge rubber and silicone foam: soft and compressible to compensate larger gaps
Advantages of rubber T-profiles
- The T shape allows easy mounting in grooves, guides or slide-in channels, for example as a push-in T-profile.
- Good resilience and sealing performance in continuous use
- Depending on the material, electrically insulating, highly resistant to chemicals or suitable for food contact
- High flexibility combined with dimensional stability
- Available by the metre or as cut sections
Cutting to length and packaging
We deliver your T-profiles in the form you process them:
- by the metre on reels or in bundles
- pre-cut to the required length
- packed securely for transport, to your specification on request
