Rubber sealing profile SFD08-S

elastomerfor window

Window seal SFD08-S protects gaps in windows and doors from water or insects as well as frost and heat. The window seal is made of durable TPE material. Thermoplastic elastomer is flexible and resistant to UV radiation as well as various weather conditions. SFD08-S is a mixture of hard thermoplastic materials with rubber. The seal is easy to assemble. SFD08-S seal from Steigner is recommended as a high-quality replacement. It significantly reduces heating costs. HOW TO CARE FOR WINDOW AND DOOR SEALS? The seal may loose its properties after prolonged use despite its durability and strength. This may occur because of: incorrect installation as well as frequent usage or treatment with aggressive chemicals. That’s why all seals should be checked regularly. Worn out seals can let in cool air and wind, thereby increasing the cost of heating. If an item no longer meets expectations, replace it with a new one. WHAT MATERIALS ARE STEIGNER SEALS MADE OUT OF? Steigner seals D, E, P and V are made of EPDM material (ethylene-propylene diene terpolymer). Its chemical composition and structure makes the elements extremely durable (about 8 years of durability). They are resistant to UV radiation, ozone and various weather conditions. Seals retain their flexibility even during long-term frosts or hot weather. SFD and STD seals are made of TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) material. It’s a mixture of hard thermoplastics with rubber. TPE is flexible, resistant to abrasion or aging. It is environmentally safe.
