ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for fitting a sealing strip to a mounting flange running around a motor vehicle door opening is disclosed. The sealing strip is preferably in the form of a closed ring and is longitudinally resilient having a channel-shaped gripping section and a soft sealing section. A jig is in the form of an outer plate which is larger in area than the door opening defined by the flange. The strip in ring form is placed on this outer plate and then pulled inwardly by gripping fingers so as to distort it into a shape limited by arm ends and to take up a peripheral size less than the size of the door opening. The jig then positions the seal, which is partially compressed between the outer plate and an inner plate, within the door opening. The gripping fingers are then released and the arm ends move outwardly so as to press the gripping section of the sealing strip onto the flange.
