Our clients regularly use our rubber profiles throughout the solar industry to enhance the reliability and finish of PV systems. They are ideal for edge protection on solar panel frames and aluminium rails, as well as for gap sealing between modules to prevent water ingress and dust accumulation. Many installers also use these trims for vibration isolation, helping to reduce noise and wear in areas exposed to wind loading.
REQUEST A QUOTESolar panel seam gaskets fill the gaps between adjacent solar panels. These T-shaped extrusions press into place between two aluminum frames and seal a gap with a specific size. For the best result, clean the aluminum surfaces with soap and water prior to gasket installation. Later, your installer can apply a liquid sealant to the ends of cut rubber lengths and apply a flat, T-shaped cap over the intersections.
Most solar panel seam gaskets are made of EPDM, a synthetic rubber that resists sunlight, ozone, oxygen, weather, water, and a wide range of outdoor temperatures. Sometimes, weather-resistant PVC plastic is used instead. Solar panel manufacturers can also use gasket materials that are co-extruded from a flexible plastic, such as polyethylene, and a water-resistant thermoplastic elastomer (TPE).
Arisons can supply you with coils of extruded rubber or plastic that you cut yourself and install on-site or within your solar panel manufacturing facility. We can also supply you with continuous gaskets that let you minimize the use of butt joints, which are prone to leaking. When you buy fabricated gaskets instead of coils, you can speed up gasket installation and reduce material waste from accidental miscuts.
Certification and Specifications
All concrete pipe gaskets must meet certain classes of ASTM C1619, depending on the specifications for a project. Generally, sanitary projects will require C1619 Class A (standard rubber) or B (oil-resistant rubber) and stormwater projects will reference C1619 Class C (standard) or D (oil-resistant).
Our factory has been ISO 9001 certified since 2005. In subsequent years, we have successively obtained ISO 14001, CE, EN 681 and SGS certifications, as well as other internationally recognized qualifications.
FAQ
What materials are used in your solar panel seals?
We manufacture solar panel seals primarily using EPDM rubber, prized for its resistance to UV, ozone, and weathering. Additionally, we offer options made with weather-resistant PVC and co-extruded plastics to suit various environmental and project needs. These durable materials ensure reliable long-term performance.
Can you customize solar panel seals for different sizes or specific project requirements?
Yes, we provide solar panel seals both as coils for onsite cutting and as fabricated continuous gaskets. This flexibility allows us to meet diverse sizing demands and installation preferences, making us a trusted rubber gasket manufacturer for tailored sealing solutions.
How should I prepare surfaces before installing your seals to ensure proper adhesion?
We recommend cleaning aluminum frames and rail surfaces thoroughly with soap and water to remove dirt, oils, and residues. Proper surface preparation is essential to maximize the seal’s adhesion and maintain the effectiveness of our rubber sealing solutions for concrete pipe and solar panel installations.
Do you offer support or guidance for maintaining the performance of your rubber gaskets?
We provide technical advice and product information to help maintain the integrity of our rubber gaskets over their service life. Regular inspection for wear or damage and prompt replacement ensure continued protection against water ingress, dust, and environmental stressors.
