Slot Tube Rubber Strip
The Slot Tube Rubber Strip is the profiled rubber that sits in the slot of the UNIKIM slot tube and U cap rail. It holds the tube firmly on the glass, takes up tolerances and keeps metal away from the glass edge.
The UNIKIM 2024 catalogue (pages 13 and 17) lists three widths – MOD 0842 for 24 mm slots (tube Ø42.4), MOD 0848 for 27 mm slots (Ø48.3) and MOD 0860 for 34 mm slots (Ø60.3) – each for several glass thicknesses.
