01
How do I find the right seal?
Start in the Sealfinder: type a part number, a dimension, or plain words like 'bulb seal for a slide-out', then narrow with the filters — style, material, width, flange and more, the same fields on our drawings. Press 'Show me around' on the Sealfinder for a guided tour, or read the walkthrough under Resources.
02
I only have a competitor's part number. Can you match it?
Yes — type it into the Sealfinder search exactly as printed. You get our closest equivalents, ranked, with dimensions side by side so you can verify the match yourself.
03
I only have the old seal in my hand. Now what?
Measure what you can — the opening it grips and its overall width and height — and search by those numbers. Fixing an RV slide-out? The RV path matches your seal in three questions. Still stuck: photograph it and send it through the quote form.
04
Do you make custom profiles?
Yes. We design and fabricate 100% of our extrusion tooling in-house, so a custom profile starts with your drawing — or your description — through the quote form, and our team takes it from there.
05
What materials do you extrude?
Dense and sponge rubber — EPDM for weather and ozone, nitrile for oil and fuel, neoprene for marine service, silicone for heat and cold — plus PVC and TPE. Every part's page states its compound and durometer.
06
Can I get a sample before ordering?
Yes — request one through the sample form with the part numbers and a postal address. A short length is usually the fastest way to check fit and feel before committing to a coil.
07
Where are your seals made?
Upper Sandusky, Ohio — extruding there since 1963, with cutting, notching, drilling, splicing and taping under the same roof.
08
Are you certified?
Our quality system is ISO-certified through Smithers, and Uni-Grip is a WBE-certified supplier.
09
How fast will someone reply?
A Customer Service rep replies to every enquiry within one business day — a person who knows the product, not a queue.
10
How do I buy?
A set of standard profiles carries a Buy on Amazon button on the part page. Everything else is quoted: send the enquiry and the reply comes back with real numbers. Collecting several parts? Use + QUOTE in the Sealfinder and send one enquiry for the lot.
11
Do you work in millimetres?
Our drawings are dimensioned in inches, and the site shows both — press UNITS in the Sealfinder or on a comparison and every dimension flips to millimetres.
12
I buy for a production line or a fleet. Who do I talk to?
The same quote form — include your annual volume and the enquiry goes straight into an engineering conversation about tooling and fit, not a sales script.
13
Which industries do you serve?
Recreational vehicles, emergency vehicles, heavy trucks, agriculture, marine, transportation, construction equipment, utility vehicles, and metal and fiberglass fabrication — the Industries page shows each with its common profiles.
14
Where do I find a spec sheet?
On the part's page — every active profile carries its dimensioned drawing and a downloadable PDF spec sheet.
