Default Plastic on metal finishing strip?..


Anyone help with this one please?.

Someone somewhere makes a "finishing strip" that comprises of a thin
strip of metal around 25 mm wide with the edges turned up a little and
onto that there is pressed into place a flat Plastic strip which has
turned down edges that grip and hold onto the curved edges of the metal
strip as it were.

You could use it for finishing or putting a sort of decorative finish
over the join of say Two large panels or sheets of plastic or Fabric
covered MDF type wood if you see what I mean.

So anyone what its called and where you get it or who supplies it?. It
is used, ISTR in the shop fitting out trade..

Cheers...

Thanks for that John phoned them but its not quite what I had in mind
tho.!

This does seem to be a bit rare .. as mentioned its around an Inch wide
and goes onto a metal former around the same width with fixing screws
drilled into it then its pressed back onto the steel strip then the
raised curved edges that hold it into place thus covering the join say
between Two lumps of sheet boarding forming a fixed PVC strip to cover
the join, and of course no visible means of attachment;!..

Anyone else and ideas ??..

Not quite what you're looking for, but if not suitable, look at their
other trims, transitions, strips and seals, might be some others that are
