FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this bath screen seal?

The primary purpose is to create a watertight seal along the bottom edge of a 6mm glass shower screen or bath enclosure, preventing water from leaking onto the bathroom floor.

What glass thickness is this seal compatible with?

This seal is specifically designed for glass panels that are 6mm thick.

How do I install the seal?

Clean the glass edge, then slide the seal onto the bottom edge of the 6mm glass. For precise fitting, you can trim it with a sharp knife.

Can I use this seal on the side of a shower screen?

While primarily designed for the bottom edge, it may be used on side edges if there is a compatible surface for it to seal against and the glass is 6mm thick.

How long will the seal last?

With regular cleaning and care, the durable PVC material should provide effective sealing for a significant period. However, like all seals, it will eventually wear and may need replacement.

What if my shower screen is not exactly 6mm thick?

This seal is designed for 6mm glass. Using it on glass of a different thickness may result in a poor seal or difficulty in installation. It is recommended to measure your glass accurately.

How should I clean the seal?

Clean the seal with a soft cloth and mild soapy water. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, which can damage the material.

Troubleshooting

Seal is too loose or too tight

Ensure your glass is exactly 6mm thick. If slightly loose, you might need to add a bead of silicone sealant on the inside for a more permanent fix. If too tight, check for debris on the glass edge.

Water still leaking

Verify the seal is correctly positioned and making full contact with both the glass and the shower tray/bath. Check for any kinks or damage in the seal. Ensure the glass thickness is indeed 6mm.

Seal leaves marks on the shower tray

This is usually temporary. Clean the shower tray with a non-abrasive bathroom cleaner. Ensure the seal is kept clean to prevent residue buildup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: This seal is designed to slide onto the bottom edge of a 6mm glass bath or shower screen. Clean the glass edge thoroughly before installation. Gently push the seal onto the glass, ensuring it fits snugly. For longer screens, you may need to cut the seal to the exact length required; use a sharp utility knife for a clean cut. Ensure the seal sits flush against the glass and makes contact with the shower tray or bath edge.

Compatibility: This seal is specifically designed for glass panels that are 6mm thick. It is intended for use on the bottom edge of bath screens and shower enclosure doors where they meet a surface like a shower tray or bath rim.

Care: Clean the seal regularly with mild soap and water using a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, which can damage the PVC material. Periodically check the seal for wear and tear, replacing it if it becomes brittle, cracked, or loses its sealing effectiveness.
