Abstract
Channel-shaped strip structures are disclosed for use, for example, in vehicle body construction, such as for fitting onto door surround flanges or for use for mounting or sealing window glass. The strip structure comprises a channel-form metal carrier embedded in extruded or plastics or rubber material. The design of the metal carrier may be such as to resist lengthwise compression of the strip. In addition, the carrier has secured to it and running along one surface, and under the extruded plastics or rubber material, a flexible substantially inextensible member, such as polyester tape, which substantially prevents stretching of the strip.
