Abstract
A weatherstrip having an upper lip and a support section on one side defining therebetween a panel receiving groove and having a hollow seal on the other side. A sponge rubber material is integrally provided with at least a portion of the upper lip and faces the panel receiving groove, to thus firmly bond with a panel and to absorb a bending deformation of the weatherstrip at corners of the panel. Such as a weatherstrip is particularly suitable for use as a weatherstrip for a sliding roof of an automotive vehicle.
