Extruded Rubber U-Channels
U-Shaped profiles are generally used to fit within a channel and serve as an edge guard to a mating piece. Their main purpose is to create a secure fit, eliminate vibration, and eliminate movement. Depending on application and exposure to conditions, they can be manufactured from a variety of material.
