Item No. CER-012
Our rubber pinch weld is a flexible edge trim and sealing profile designed to protect, cover and finish exposed edges on metal, glass, plastic, fibreglass and plywood panels. It provides a clean finished appearance while helping protect edges from abrasion, impact, moisture, dust and general wear.
Also known as pinch weld trim, rubber edge trim, edge seal or rubber pinch weld seal, this product is widely used in automotive, marine, caravan, agricultural, industrial and outdoor applications.
Available in a range of rubber compounds, sizes and profiles, our rubber pinch welds can be customised according to your drawing, sample or application requirements.
A rubber pinch weld is an edge protection and sealing profile designed to fit over the edge of a panel or sheet. The rubber profile helps cover sharp or unfinished edges and provides a flexible sealing surface.
Depending on the design, a pinch weld trim can be used for:
Edge protection
Panel finishing
Waterproofing and dust protection
Vibration reduction
Anti-abrasion protection
Sealing around doors, panels and openings
Replacing worn or damaged edge trim
Some profiles incorporate a gripping insert or reinforced carrier to help the trim stay securely positioned on the panel.
Our rubber pinch weld trims are designed for reliable performance in demanding indoor and outdoor environments.
Key features include:
Protects exposed panel edges from damage and wear
Provides a neat and professional edge finish
Helps reduce water and dust ingress
Flexible construction for easy installation
Suitable for straight and curved edges
Good resistance to weathering, UV and ozone
Available in different rubber compounds
Suitable for indoor and outdoor applications
Custom dimensions and profiles available
Manufactured according to drawings or samples
Different rubber compounds can be selected according to the application and operating environment.
EPDM is commonly selected for outdoor applications because of its excellent resistance to weathering, UV, ozone and moisture. It is suitable for automotive, caravan, marine and general outdoor applications.
NBR provides good resistance to oils and fuels, making it suitable for industrial and automotive applications where contact with petroleum-based fluids may occur.
Neoprene offers a good balance of weather resistance, mechanical properties and flexibility. It can be used in industrial, automotive and marine applications.
Silicone rubber is suitable for applications requiring excellent temperature resistance and long-term flexibility. It can be considered for demanding temperature environments.
Material selection can be recommended according to temperature, weather exposure, chemical contact, mechanical requirements and service conditions.
Rubber pinch weld trims are widely used for edge protection and sealing across several industries.
Car door edges
Vehicle body panels
Bonnet and boot openings
Interior and exterior panel edges
Vehicle equipment and bodywork
Replacement automotive edge trim
Caravan panels
Camper trailers
Canopy enclosures
Trailer body edges
Door and hatch openings
Fibreglass and plywood panel edges
Boat panels and openings
Marine equipment
Fibreglass edges
Hatch and compartment openings
Protective trim around exposed edges
Industrial machinery
Electrical and equipment enclosures
Agricultural machinery
Tractors and engineering equipment
Metal and plastic panels
Equipment doors and access panels
Exposed metal, plastic, fibreglass and plywood edges can be vulnerable to impact, abrasion and environmental exposure. A rubber edge trim provides a simple way to cover these edges while improving the overall appearance of the finished product.
For vehicles, caravans, trailers and marine equipment, rubber pinch welds can also help create a more finished seal around doors, panels and openings.
We manufacture custom rubber pinch welds and edge trim profiles according to customer drawings, samples and specifications.
Customisation can include:
Profile dimensions
Panel grip range
Rubber compound
Hardness
Colour
Length
Cross-section design
Reinforced or gripping insert
Adhesive backing, where required
If you have an existing profile that needs replacement, you can also provide a sample or cross-section drawing for evaluation.

Standardized Pallets: Goods are stacked on heat-treated (ISPM 15) or plastic pallets, optimized for forklift handling. Rigid Corner Protectors: High-impact cardboard corner guards are applied to the full height of the stack. This prevents the straps from cutting into the rubber and maintains the vertical integrity of the pallet.
Standard Rolls: Goods are typically supplied in 50m or 100m continuous rolls, precision-coiled to maintain the profile’s structural shape.
What is a rubber pinch weld?
A rubber pinch weld is a flexible rubber edge trim designed to fit over the edge of a panel. It helps protect exposed edges while providing sealing, finishing and vibration protection.
What materials are available for rubber pinch welds?
Common materials include EPDM, NBR, neoprene (CR) and silicone. The most suitable material depends on the application's temperature, weather, oil, chemical and mechanical requirements.
What is the difference between pinch weld trim and rubber edge trim?
Pinch weld trim is a type of rubber edge trim designed to grip or fit over a panel edge. The terms are sometimes used interchangeably, although edge trim can also refer to profiles without a gripping or pinch-weld function.
Can rubber pinch welds be customised?
Yes. Custom rubber pinch welds can be manufactured according to drawings, samples or specifications. Dimensions, profile design, rubber compound, hardness and colour can be customised.
What panel materials can rubber pinch welds be used on?
Rubber pinch welds can be used on metal, plastic, glass, fibreglass, plywood and other suitable panel materials, depending on the profile design and installation requirements.
Are rubber pinch welds suitable for outdoor use?
Yes. EPDM rubber pinch welds are commonly used for outdoor applications because of their good resistance to UV, ozone, weathering and moisture. Material selection should be based on the specific operating environment.
Can rubber pinch welds be used on caravans and camper trailers?
Yes. Rubber pinch welds are widely suitable for caravan, camper trailer and canopy applications, including panel edges, doors, hatches and fibreglass or plywood structures.
Can you manufacture a replacement rubber pinch weld from a sample?
Yes. A physical sample can be used to evaluate the profile and develop a replacement rubber extrusion. A cross-section drawing and key dimensions can also be provided if available.
What information is needed for a rubber pinch weld quotation?
For an accurate quotation, it is helpful to provide the profile drawing or sample, panel thickness, required material, hardness, colour, total length or quantity and application environment.
