Product Description
GN2190 Edge Protection Seal Profiles, FDA Compliant
These edge protection seal profiles, GN 2190, can be used to seal doors, covers and hatches. The profiles are pressed by hand onto the front of metal sheets and plates. The embedded clamp insert prevents detachment and glue or other adhesives are not required.
They are installed on the edges of metal sheets and plates, to protect surfaces from damage caused by sharp edges. The edge finish additionally produces a decorative effect, while the need for potential further treatment such as burring and chamfering of cut or laser-cut metal sheets is reduced to an absolute minimum, cutting costs.
Thanks to the use of FDA compliant materials, the profiles are suitable for applications with corresponding requirements. In addition to approval as per FDA 21 CFR 177.2600, the silicone version satisfies the guidelines of 3-A Sanitary Standard Inc. and DIN ISO 10993.
The profiles made of NBR are particularly suited for applications where they may come into contact with oils, greases, or similar fluids.
Available as side or top profiles. When installed, the profile should be compressed slightly by the adjacent components according to measurement w2. This ensures an optimal seal. It is recommended to adhere to the placement radii (r1 - r4) guidelines in order to ensure a tight and long lasting profile seal and to make assembly easier.
The NBR seal profiles have venting holes on one side for production-related reasons (at a distance of about 2m), which should be taken into account for design and installation.
