Tapered Shower Seal - 6-8mm Glass, Fin 25mm to 10mm, 900mm

What this seal is

A clear tapered seal for shower and bath screens with 6–8mm glass, made for the awkward situation where the gap under the glass is uneven. The rigid PVC U-channel — 10mm tall, with a 6mm mouth widening to 8mm at the base and internal gripping nibs — pushes onto the edge of the glass with no adhesive, and the soft flexible fin below it tapers in height from 25mm down to 10mm along the 900mm length, following the slope as the gap narrows.

It is designed for the bottom edge of the glass, where a tray, bath or floor runs out of level and a standard straight-finned seal would leave one end gaping. Please refer to the product diagrams for the exact profile.

Which tapered seal do I need?

Measure the gap at both ends of the glass. In most cases we recommend a seal with a fin 2–5mm bigger than the gap you need to seal, so the fin stays compressed against the tray along the whole run. Our tapered seals come in a number of different sizes — if this 25mm-to-10mm taper does not match your measurements, ask us about the other sizes in the range.

Specification

Why fit this seal

Seals an uneven gap properly. When the tray or bath runs out of level, a straight seal either jams at one end or leaks at the other. The tapered fin follows the slope so the whole bottom edge stays sealed.

No adhesive, no mess. The channel is designed to comfortably grip 6–8mm glass on its own — it pushes straight on and can be removed without leaving residue.

Protects floors and fittings. Closing the gap under the glass stops water pooling outside the shower and damaging flooring, skirting and plaster.

Cut to fit at home. The 900mm length trims down easily, or add our custom cutting service. Remember that trimming removes part of the taper — measure carefully before you cut.

Fitting in three steps

1. Measure. Check your glass is 6–8mm thick and measure the gap at both ends of the bottom edge.

2. Choose. Confirm the 25mm-to-10mm taper covers your measurements, allowing a fin 2–5mm bigger than the gap.

3. Fit. Trim to length if needed, then push the channel squarely onto the bottom edge of the glass with the deeper end of the fin over the wider end of the gap. No tools, no adhesive, no drying time. Never slide the seal along the glass — this can damage it.

Not sure it fits?

Email a photo of your old seal or your gap measurements at both ends to sales@industrial-polymers.co.uk and our UK team will confirm the right taper before you order — usually the same working day.
