The rigid PVC channel — about 10mm tall with a 6mm mouth that flexes over 6mm, 7mm or 8mm glass — simply pushes onto the bottom edge of the glass with no adhesive, while the soft flexible fin underneath tapers in height from \u003cstrong\u003e15mm at one end down to 5mm at the other\u003c\/strong\u003e across the 900mm length, closing an uneven gap between the glass and the top of the bath or shower tray.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf your screen sits closer to the tray at one end than the other, a standard straight-fin seal will either drag or leave a gap. This tapered profile follows the slope, giving a consistent seal along the full width of the glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhich taper do I need?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMeasure the gap between the glass and the tray at both ends of the screen. In most cases we recommend a fin between \u003cstrong\u003e2–5mm bigger\u003c\/strong\u003e than the gap you need to seal — the flexible fin compresses for a tight, watertight fit. Fit the seal with the deep 15mm end over the widest part of the gap. Our tapered seals come in a number of sizes to suit almost any gap — ask us if this taper is not the right match for your measurements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable class=\"iplp__spec\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFits glass thickness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6mm, 7mm or 8mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFin taper\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15mm down to 5mm over the 900mm length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProfile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRigid U-channel approx 10mm tall with 6mm mouth, soft blade fin below\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e900mm — custom cutting service available (cutting shortens the taper range)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRigid PVC channel with soft flexible tapered fin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFitting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePush-fit — no adhesive required\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSold as\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSingle length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSamples\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot available — a small sample would only show one point of the taper\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGlass type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStraight glass (contact us for our curved-seal service)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCutting down\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCan be cut to the length you require at home\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy fit this seal\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeals uneven gaps properly.\u003c\/strong\u003e A sloping gap under the glass is a common cause of persistent leaks — the tapered fin closes it along its whole length, protecting flooring, skirting and plaster from water damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNo adhesive, no mess.\u003c\/strong\u003e The rigid channel grips 6–8mm glass on its own — it pushes straight on and can be removed without leaving residue on the glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCut to fit at home.\u003c\/strong\u003e The 900mm length trims down to your screen width — just remember cutting from one end shortens the taper range, so trim from the end that suits your gap.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUK stock, fast dispatch.\u003c\/strong\u003e Held in stock in the UK and dispatched same day when you order before 2pm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting in three steps\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1.
