Abstract
Metal carriers are disclosed for use in channel-shaped sealing, trimming and finishing strips, and channel-shaped window glass guides, such as for fitting to motor vehicle bodies. The carriers comprise a series of U-shaped side-by-side elements which are connected together. Each element is connected to the adjacent element on one side by a single connecting link running along the base of the channel, and is connected to the adjacent element on the other side by two connecting links which join the legs of the adjacent elements. In addition, the distal ends of those legs which are connected together by the connecting links have abutting extensions. In use, the carriers are covered with extruded plastics or rubber material. The abutting extensions prevent or limit stretching of the strip - by preventing movement towards each other of the distal ends of the legs.
