FAQs
Weatherseal technology is used in a variety of applications, including sealing windows (glass run), primary and secondary door seals, and trunk seals of a vehicle to help prevent water leakage and reduce noise, vibration and harshness.
Weather seals form a flexible, airtight, and watertight barrier that sits in gaps between two surfaces and protects structures from the elements, such as wind, rain, and temperature changes. It uses flexible, weather-resistant materials such as rubber, or foamed rubber that offer sealing performance under compression, ensuring long-term protection.
NORDEL™ EPDM is a high-performance synthetic rubber made of ethylene-propylene-diene monomer (EPDM). It offers excellent resistance to heat, UV weathering, ozone, and aging, making it a good option for outdoor applications, including sealing and gasketing in automotive and construction industries.
Sealants with weatherseal technology offer flexibility and environmental protection, allowing movement between materials. Multi-component structural adhesives are rigid, offering strong bonds for load-bearing applications with minimal movement.
