With the continuous improvement of quality of life, bathrooms meet people’s daily life needs while more integrating people’s enjoyment of life and quality. Comfortable and safe bathing space can make people eliminate fatigue, stretch their mood, improve sleep, and increase their happiness in life. A wide variety of shower room seals are essential to decorate a comfortable and secure shower room. The sealing rubber strip is a product that seals a thing so that it is not easy to open, and plays a role in damping, waterproofing, sound insulation, heat insulation, dustproofing, and fixing. This essay is going to introduce various shower room seals: standard seals,super clear seals and featured seals.
Standard seals
- Swing door seals
Although there are various styles of swing doors, in order to fit them, seal suppliers have also designed different door seals according to the style of casement doors. The same thing is that they always sweep the bottom. Choose the shape of the door seal, the size depends on the characteristics of the door, such as the size of the door frame and the arrangement of the hinge, it is also affected by the surface material of the floor. The bottom of it generally uses a full range of brushes. In addition, brushed door weather strips and weather strips provide a very effective way to prevent heat loss and provide non-chemical pest control and dust control around the revolving door. It is used as a barrier to control lying and crawling insects and small animals, because brushing door seals and weather strips permanently prevents insects, insects and other pests from entering without the need for chemicals. This design escorts a comfortable home environment.
2. Sliding door seals
The use of folding doors or sliding doors to provide wide openings is the prerequisite for making many architectural projects look very high-end and luxurious, but the disadvantages of such doors cannot be ignored. When the door is closed, wind, rain, pests, heat, cold, dust and other harmful elements in the air will take the opportunity to enter the building through the sliding door to harm the human body. Wanting to seal the many leak points around the door and always improving the air tightness of the building, for these types of doors, a range of different sliding door seals are available on the market.
Based on the advancement of industrial technology and science, some sealing strip suppliers have made a lot of efforts on the experience of sliding doors. On the market today, manufacturers always keep quality and attention to detail when designing seals. They sell sliding door seals that can withstand one million cycles and can optionally provide a magnetic “slide and lock” feature to prevent accidental opening when necessary. Not only that, they provide a series of professional soundproofing sealing strips for sliding doors, but also provide solutions for typical wooden sliding doors and glass structures of 6mm and above.
This popular door seal combination is usually specified for multiple sliding doors and has been tested to reach a rating of 33Rw using a 40mm thick wooden door. Other door seal combinations have also been successfully used in high wind areas and have been tested to withstand water infiltration pressures up to 2000 Pa.
3. Magnetic seal
Magnetic sealing rubber strips are produced from rubber and are mainly used in the fields of automobiles, machinery, doors and windows. Magnetic sealing strips are mainly used to bridge glass and bead, glass and frame fan, frame and fan, can prevent the leakage or intrusion of internal and external media (rainwater, air, sand, etc.), can prevent or reduce the vibration and impact due to machinery The damage caused by it, so as to achieve the role of sealing, sound insulation, heat insulation and shock absorption, etc., has an elastic band or rod-like material.
4.Bottom seals
Seals designed to fill the gap between the bottom of a door and the floor underneath, are referred to as door bottom seals. Common forms comprise sweep seals that have an aluminum holder with a flexible strip of rubber or brush strip mounted to the door bottom. They are designed to sweep across the floor or engage a raised threshold plate so they clear the floor as the door opens.
Door bottom seals are mechanically spring loaded seals that lift clear of the floor as the door opens and seal tight when the door is closed. Door bottom seals can be face mounted and some models can be fully concealed. They often work on the floor of the shower room. Like a scanning seal, it can be used with a threshold plate. It will prevent penetration. It is not easy to spill outside.
Most door bottom seals are easily adjusted after installation without removing the door. This ensures an optimum seal is achieved and maximum performance is maintained in the event of minor building movement.
Super clear seals
Super clear sealing strip products are mainly made of high-quality soft and hard PVC modified plastic composite co-agents, which are mainly used in shower rooms, steam room screen doors and other building materials. The shower room is an environment that is humid for a long time, heavy in moisture, and corrosive. Therefore, the production of ultra-clear raw materials has enhanced cold resistance, oxidation resistance, impact resistance, and ultraviolet resistance. It is not easy to turn yellow in the sun. Product quality assurance relies on the enhancement and improvement of various properties of raw materials, advanced automatic production lines and production processes. Strict quality management is also indispensable. This kind of ultra-clear seals are resistant to aging and impact, and have high cold resistance, which is favored by consumers.
More importantly, Super clear seals has the following advantages:
(1) The rubber strips are moderately soft and hard, not easy to be brittle, the wall thickness is not deformed, there are no spots on the surface, and the appearance is more elegant.
(2) Easy to install and operate, just click on the glass; no need to use glass glue, completely waterproof, easy to install.
(3) The quality of the rubber strip is generally guaranteed for three years, and the rubber strip will not be yellow or deformed.
(4) Color: transparent and natural, matched with glass
(5) Reasonable structure, corrosion resistance, smooth sliding, light and silent.
Featured seals
1. Matte seals
In the practical application of the sealant strip, in order to make the sealed object have better seal ability, the end surface of the sealant strip needs to be sanded to make one end surface maintain a certain roughness, and the rough surface and the sealant are adhered. When combined, it can greatly improve the adhesion and sealing ability of the sealing rubber strip. Due to the narrow and long characteristics of sealing rubber strips, the common frosting equipment will have inaccurate positioning of the rubber strips during the frosting process of the sealing rubber strips, and the inefficiency of the frosting is low. The shape properties of the sealant strips operate. After this strict frosting process, the adhesiveness of the sealing strip is strong.
2. Colored seals
In daily life, people sometimes encounter discoloration of colored seals and feel puzzled about it. Colored seals are usually tinted using inorganic or organic pigments. There are some differences in the products produced by these two methods. Inorganic pigments have few colors, but have good weather resistance. Therefore, colored seals that are tinted with inorganic pigments are not easy to fade. On the contrary, although seals with organic pigments are rich in color, they have poor weather resistance and are easy to fade. For this reason, some preventive measures must be taken to delay the fading: It is recommended that customers use inorganic pigments as much as possible when they need toning glue, and do not pursue too similar colors for bright colors that may use organic pigments.
3. Adhesive sealing
Adhesive sealing and heat sealing both provide a highly efficient and robust method for protecting samples. These methods of sealing are much more convenient and cost effective than other capping methods. Our adhesive seals leave behind no sticky residue when the seal is removed, allowing the plate to be consecutively sealed. Foil seals are easily pierced and leave no adhesive buildup on pipette tip. The range includes both peelable and piercable options, and plates can be resealed multiple times. Heat sealing is an excellent option for higher throughput laboratories. Heat seals are also peelable, but heat sealing creates a hermetic bond with the plate, giving the best protection against evaporation and leakage. This adhesive free sealing gives high chemical resistance and minimizes the risk of extractable contaminants.
