ABSTRACT:
A channel-shaped sealing strip, such as for clamping over the metal flange of a vehicle door opening so as to embrace, protect and decorate the flange, comprises a flexible U-shaped metal carrier covered in elastomeric material, the elastomeric material having an insert of softer elastomeric material running along the inside of the base of the channel to seal against the edge of the flange. The strip may also have longitudinal gripping ribs running along opposite inside facing side walls of the channel to grip annd seal against the flange sides. A sealing part of softer elastomeric material may run on and along the outside of one wall of the channel. In a modification, where such a sealing part, and gripping ribs, are provided, the insert is omitted.
