Q Series

Ultrafab’s diamond or square base skirt weatherseals provide a modern, efficient alternative to metal-backed designs. These weatherseals ensure protection against air and water infiltration, improve energy efficiency, and adapt to various profiles for residential, commercial, and architectural applications. By eliminating metal backing, they reduce weight, simplify installation, and avoid corrosion issues, delivering a versatile and reliable solution for high-quality sealing systems.

Features & Benefits

  • A totally robust weatherseal that uses compacted fibers and Ultrafab’s unique pile directors to build an extremely durable, cost effective product
  • Extra durable monofilament fibers can be blended with regular fibers for maximum resistance to compression
  • Fins can be added to promote resiliency and long term protection from the elements
  • Solid polypropylene base and “pile directors” provide a rigid backing with no need for an additional metal backing
  • Pile height and backing width are always uniform because of Ultrafab’s unique non-woven manufacturing systems
  • Q Series pile weatherseal uses round yarns for optimal structural integrity and consistency which assures a tight seal and barrier against air and water infiltration
  • Ultrafab’s unique ultrasonic welding assembles the fin, fibers and backing into an integrated, unified assembly that won’t break apart during fabrication or while in use
