P-Seal Gasket Applications

P-shaped rubber seals can be used in a variety of industries and applications, particularly for sealing and to create a water-tight seal for:

Door frames
Hinged windows
Hatch seals
Piping between panels on cars and trucks
And more

Benefits of P-Shaped Rubber Seals

Our extruded rubber P-seals can be used indoors, outdoors, and in extreme temperatures and weather conditions. Rubber P-seals also:

Create a water-tight seal
Resist ozone
Resist UV light
Reduce heat loss
Prevent drafts

Compression & Tape Systems

As you select the right seal for your application, choose the size that will provide 25-40% compression for maximum performance, with 25% being optimal. You can also choose between a 3M bonded tape system or standard pressure sensitive adhesive, which you can learn about below.

3M™ BONDED TAPE SYSTEM

The 3M Bonded Tape System enables you to achieve the ultimate bond to the rubber and the ultimate bond to the substrate. This tape option creates a moisture barrier and air-tight seal. With the highest peel-and-sheer resistance, the 3M Bonded Tape System can be used under high loads of stress and force. It has low initial tack for easy repositioning during installation and needs 72 hours of cure time to come to full-bond strength. It is rated for good heat performance between -20°F to 158°F

STANDARD PRESSURE SENSITIVE ADHESIVE

Standard Pressure-Sensitive Adhesive option for your seal is an acrylic-based adhesive. It works best when used to hold the seal in place while installing in a static application or when it’s compressed between two stationary objects. It may be used in some light-duty dynamic applications against a variety of substrates. It is rated for good heat performance between -20°F to 158°F. Please note: During installation, the ambient temperature must be above 60°F.
