EPDM sealing strip 90x3 mm in 50 m rolls for installation on trapezoidal sheet metal (EAN 0768563821622)

EPDM Sealing Strip for Solar Mounting on Trapezoidal Sheet Metal

When installing photovoltaic panels on trapezoidal sheet metal roofs, achieving a reliable seal at each fixing point is essential for the long-term integrity of the installation. The Wattuneed EPDM sealing strip 90x3 mm provides a compressible, weather-resistant gasket that sits between the mounting rail and the roof surface, preventing water ingress and protecting the underlying structure.

Product Specifications

This strip is manufactured from EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber, a synthetic elastomer widely used in outdoor sealing applications due to its durability and resistance to environmental stress. The strip measures 90 mm in width and 3 mm in thickness, and is supplied in a 50-metre roll to cover larger installations without frequent joins.

• Dimensions: 90 mm x 3 mm
• Roll length: 50 metres
• Material: EPDM synthetic rubber
• Application: trapezoidal sheet metal roofing

Why Use an EPDM Strip on Trapezoidal Roofing?

Trapezoidal sheet metal profiles create gaps between the corrugated roof surface and the flat base of a mounting rail. Without an appropriate sealing strip, these gaps allow rainwater, dust and insects to penetrate the fixing area, potentially leading to corrosion, leaks or structural damage over time.

The 90x3 mm EPDM strip compresses under the clamping force of the fixings, conforming to the profile of the trapezoidal sheet and forming a continuous, uniform seal along the full length of the rail. The 90 mm width is compatible with standard mounting rails used in photovoltaic racking systems.

Durability and Weather Resistance

EPDM rubber is well suited to outdoor applications exposed to varying climatic conditions. It demonstrates strong resistance to UV radiation, ozone, extreme temperatures and moisture. These characteristics make it a practical choice for photovoltaic installations intended to remain in service for several decades.

Applications

This sealing strip is suitable for use by DIY installers, professional solar installers and SMEs working on industrial, agricultural or residential roofing projects with trapezoidal sheet metal coverings. It integrates seamlessly into standard solar mounting systems.

Packaging

The 50-metre roll allows on-site cutting to the required length, reducing waste and simplifying stock management. Product reference: EPDM-Dichtband-90-3-50. Available at wattuneed.com with delivery to France and Belgium.
