The rigid PVC U-section pushes onto the edge of the glass and grips on its own — no adhesive needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlong the bottom of the seal runs a soft flexible fin that tapers in height from \u003cstrong\u003e20mm down to 5mm\u003c\/strong\u003e, so it follows a sloping or out-of-level gap and keeps the water inside the enclosure along the full width. Please refer to the product diagrams for the exact sizes.
