This self grip edge trim – 5.5mm x 8.5mm is a highly durable edge protector which doubles as a decorative trim to improve the appearance of any edge.
When storing or transporting materials, the edges often collide which can warp or, in some cases, cause damage to the material. Equally, leaving sharp edges exposed on finished products like sheds can pose a potential hazard to the people around them. This edge trim provides a simple and cost-effective solution to protect any edge from damage or from causing harm to other people.
This particular edge trim features a steel core that runs throughout the length of the product. This gives our product two main benefits over standard rubber edge trims. Firstly, the steel core provides a rigid structure which ensures it is able to hold its shape, even under heavy pressure. Secondly, the steel core offers a solid section to protect you, as well as the edge, from any potential impacts. The inner channel of the edge trim also contains a gripping arm which enables you to install this product without the need for adhesive. This enables you to use it over and over again.
We manufacture this edge trim from high-quality PVC rubber due to the unique properties the material offers. PVC rubber can easily prevent weather and moisture from coming into contact with the material. This makes it perfect for use in indoor and outdoor applications. PVC also offers great resistance to a wide range of chemicals.
Edge trim profiles simplify the finishing of edges. They eliminate preparatory and follow-up work, and cover sheet metal edges. Furthermore, their decorative effect is often desirable. The edge trim protectors consist of a U-shaped metal base, either a steel strip or wire carrier, jacketed with PVC or rubber. These guarantee a tight grip on the edge, even if radii or bends need cover. Press the edge trim profiles onto the edge by hand or with a rubber or thermoplastic hammer. You do not require adhesive or special attachment aids; installation is simple and quick.
