Collection: Rubber edge trims

Are rubber edge trims U-profiles?

Yes. These rubber edge trims are U-profiles, meaning they have a U-shaped channel that fits over an exposed edge. They protect the edge from impact and abrasion, improve safety by covering sharp contact points, and create a clean, finished look for technical and industrial applications.

What is rubber edge trim

Rubber edge trim is a protective rubber edging that fits over panel, sheet, or component edges. Because the material is flexible, it conforms well to the substrate and can accommodate small tolerances or minor irregularities along the edge.

In many applications, rubber edge trim is selected as a practical edge finishing solution where consistent edge protection and neat appearance are needed over time.

When to use rubber edge trim

Use rubber edge trim when exposed edges are vulnerable to damage, wear, or sharp contact. This is common for cut or machined edges on sheet metal, panels, and enclosures where safe handling and durability matter.

It is also used to reduce chafing when cables, hoses, or parts run along an edge. Depending on the retention requirement, the U-profile can be pressed onto the edge or additionally secured if needed.

Applications of rubber edge trim

Rubber edge trim is used in machinery, cabinets and housings, vehicles, workshops, and general industrial installations. Typical applications include edge protection for sheets and panels, finishing cut-outs, protecting edges around doors and covers, and covering sharp edges on fabricated components.

Profiles are available for different edge thicknesses and are commonly supplied in standard lengths or cut to size for installation.
