The FC-114 plastic seal strip is an EVA-based glazing seal designed for securing glass panels within aluminum or wooden frame systems. This product eliminates the need for adhesive during installation, relying instead on a friction-fit design that holds glass panels firmly in place. Manufactured as a continuous profile, the FC-114 can be cut to custom lengths on-site, allowing commercial procurement teams to order bulk rolls and trim them according to project specifications. The clear material maintains visual transparency along the glass edge, preserving the aesthetic appearance of frameless or semi-frameless glass installations.
EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate) is selected for this product due to its flexibility, impact resilience, and resistance to moisture. The material properties make it suitable for applications exposed to humidity and temperature variation, such as bathroom and shower environments.

The FC-114 features a profile design that grips glass panels through mechanical pressure rather than chemical bonding. Once the rigid base section is pressed into the frame channel, the seal maintains consistent contact with the glass surface, creating a stable hold without silicone or adhesive. This design reduces installation time and simplifies disassembly when glass replacement is required.
Produced using precision extrusion tooling, the FC-114 maintains uniform cross-sectional dimensions along its entire length. Consistent profile dimensions ensure predictable installation results across large-scale commercial projects, where hundreds of meters of seal may be installed across multiple door or window units.
The seal is designed to work with both aluminum and wooden frame systems. The EVA material compresses slightly during installation to accommodate minor dimensional variations in frame channels, while still providing sufficient retention force to hold glass panels securely.
The FC-114 plastic seal strip serves across multiple commercial applications where glass panels require mechanical retention within frame structures. Shower door manufacturers use this seal type for semi-frameless shower enclosures, where it secures fixed glass panels to aluminum base channels. Glass fabricators and glazing contractors also specify this product for interior glass partitions, cabinet glass doors, and display cases. For hospitality and residential construction projects, the seal provides a clean, adhesive-free solution that supports faster installation timelines and reduces material costs associated with silicone or glazing compounds.
Before ordering or cutting the seal, measure the glass thickness and the internal width of the frame channel to confirm compatibility with the FC-114 profile dimensions.
Cut the seal to the required length using a sharp utility knife or fine-tooth saw. Insert the rigid base section into the frame channel, pressing firmly along the entire length to ensure full seating. Position the glass panel into the seal opening, applying even pressure to seat the glass fully within the profile. No adhesive is required for standard applications.
The FC-114 profile is designed for standard glass thicknesses used in shower door and interior glazing applications. Contact the supplier with specific glass thickness requirements to confirm profile compatibility.
EVA material offers resistance to moisture and moderate temperature variation. For exterior applications with prolonged UV exposure or extreme temperature conditions, consult the supplier regarding material suitability and alternative seal options.
The FC-114 is supplied in roll form, allowing continuous lengths to be cut as needed. Roll length specifications can be confirmed directly with the supplier based on project volume requirements.
EVA is a thermoplastic material that can be recycled through appropriate plastic recycling streams. Consult local waste management guidelines for specific recycling options in your region.
