8 x 20 mm Pinchweld Edge Trim with Dual Grip Teeth on Each Side
![]()
Product Overview
SealsHub supplies the 8 x 20 mm PVC Metal-Reinforced Pinchweld Edge Trim with Dual Grip Teeth on Each Side, a flexible U channel profile designed for protecting and finishing exposed panel edges with a grip range of 0.5–3 mm.
The profile combines flexible PVC with a segmented steel carrier to provide reinforced edge retention while maintaining flexibility for installation. With an 18 mm channel depth, it provides extended coverage of exposed panel edges on metal and plastic panels.
Dual grip teeth on each side create multiple contact points with the panel edge to help hold the trim securely in position after installation. The flexible PVC exterior covers the exposed edge and helps protect against abrasion, impact, and general wear while providing a clean finished appearance.
The push-on design allows the profile to be installed directly onto the panel edge without adhesive or additional fixing hardware in most applications. The coil / roll supply form also supports continuous installation along panel edges.

Profile Design
The 8 x 20 mm U channel profile combines a flexible PVC outer layer with an internal segmented steel carrier for reinforced edge retention.
Dual grip teeth are positioned on each side of the channel to grip the panel edge and help maintain the trim position after installation. The 18 mm channel depth provides extended coverage of the exposed panel edge.
This construction provides a balance of flexibility, edge protection, and secure retention for metal and plastic panels.
Installation
The Pinchweld Edge Trim is installed by pressing the U channel directly onto the panel edge.
- Clean the panel edge to remove dust, oil, and debris.
- Align the channel opening with the panel edge.
- Press the profile firmly onto the edge until fully seated.
- Check that the trim is evenly positioned along the required edge.
The dual grip teeth and segmented steel carrier help maintain the profile position after installation. No adhesive or additional fixing hardware is normally required.

FAQ
What is Pinchweld Edge Trim used for?
Pinchweld Edge Trim is used to cover, protect, and finish exposed edges of metal and plastic panels. The U channel design provides a push-on edge covering for industrial and fabricated components.
How does the Pinchweld Edge Trim stay in place?
The internal grip structure provides friction against the panel edge, while the segmented steel carrier reinforces the profile and helps maintain its fit during use.
Can the trim follow curved or irregular panel edges?
Yes. The flexible PVC construction allows the profile to conform to straight, curved, and shaped panel edges, depending on the bend radius and application.
Can the profile be cut to required lengths?
Yes. The coil / roll supply form allows the profile to be cut to the required installation length during assembly.
Is custom Pinchweld Edge Trim available?
Yes. SealsHub supplies custom profiles with options for dimensions, grip configurations, PVC colors and finishes, segmented steel carrier specifications, roll lengths, and tooling.
Are samples available before bulk orders?
