Shop the Range

When you're working with 6mm glass, getting the right water seal makes all the difference between a job well done and a callback for leaks. Our 6mm water bars are specifically designed to work with standard 6mm glass thickness, creating a watertight barrier that protects floors and prevents water damage.

These seals are essential for any glass enclosure where water containment matters. Whether you're installing a residential shower screen or a commercial wet area, the right water seal ensures your installation performs as it should.

Understanding 6mm Water Sealing Solutions

Water seals for 6mm glass come in various profiles and materials. Each type serves a specific purpose in your installation.

The most common materials include PVC, silicone, and TPE (thermoplastic elastomer). PVC seals offer durability and cost-effectiveness. Silicone options provide superior flexibility and temperature resistance. TPE combines the best of both worlds with excellent grip and longevity.

Installation is straightforward when you choose the right product. The seal simply clips onto the bottom edge of your 6mm glass panel. No adhesives or special tools required in most cases.

Proper sealing prevents water from escaping underneath glass panels. This protects flooring, reduces cleaning time, and keeps your installation looking professional for years.

Installation Tips for 6mm Seals

Proper installation makes all the difference between a watertight seal and a callback. Here's what works:

Surface preparation is critical. The substrate needs to be clean, dry, and level. Any debris or moisture will compromise the seal's effectiveness.

Most 6mm water seals feature a self-adhesive backing. However, we recommend using additional silicone adhesive for permanent installations, especially in high-traffic commercial settings.

When cutting seals to length, use a sharp utility knife. Clean cuts prevent fraying and ensure proper end-to-end connection.

Temperature matters during installation. Installing in cold conditions can make the material stiff and difficult to work with. Room temperature is ideal.

Choosing the Right 6mm Water Seal

Not all 6mm water seals are created equal. Consider these factors when selecting your sealing solution.

Glass thickness tolerance matters. While these seals are designed for 6mm glass, manufacturing variations mean you need a seal with some flexibility. Look for seals that accommodate 5.5mm to 6.5mm glass.

Length requirements vary by project. Our 6mm water bars come in standard lengths that can be easily trimmed to size. Always measure twice and cut once.

Clear or coloured options are available. Clear seals virtually disappear on clear glass. Coloured options can complement framed or tinted installations.

Durability

Our 6mm water seals resist wear, chemicals, and temperature changes for long-lasting performance.

Easy Fitting

Simple clip-on installation saves time on site without compromising on water-tightness.

Universal Compatibility

Works with all standard 6mm glass types including toughened and laminated glass.
