Top Bulb Seals
Ebco’s top bulb seals are described exactly as they sound: a special kind of trim seal with a bulb on top. The main purpose of a rubber bulb seal is to keep out unwanted dirt and debris, along with harsh weather or noise. This is accomplished by the bulb geometry providing the required sealing force for your specific application. The unique part of a trim seal with a top bulb is that there is an extra layer of seal between two objects. The metal carrier provides the attachment grip and the bulb fills the gap. The bulb allows for some movement or gap variation while maintaining a tight seal. Bulb geometry can be varied to get the desired bulb compression or door closing force.
Top bulb seals come with a metal carrier for installation. This sealing style is also available without the metal carrier in our extruded sponge and extruded dense seal catalogs.
The plate thickness that the top bulb extruded rubber seals can be applied currently ranges from 0.024 inches to 0.250 inches, and we are adding to our inventory often, covering a wide span of applications to use our seals on. Made with the highest grade of EPDM, you can relax knowing that your machines can run safely and efficiently. We have many standard profile designs that should be able to accommodate your situation. If you still can’t find the right size you need, we are equipped to customize the seal to what you want, just let us know!
