ABSTRACT:
A sealing gasket-support combination includes a sealing gasket for mounting on a support on a motor vehicle door. The support includes at least one corner having a small radius of curvature. The gasket includes at least a flexible or semi-rigid fixing portion fixed to the support by an adhesive. The gasket also includes an elastically-deformable tubular portion for providing sealing. The elastically-deformable portion includes a non-deformed cross-section in a free state and a deformed cross-section in a deformed state that is due to the corner of the support, wherein once the gasket has been mounted on the support, the deformed cross-section occupies an area that is substantially within the area occupied by the non-deformed cross section.
