Sealing strips are useful. They can serve functions such as windproofing, leak prevention, and shock absorption, reducing noise during car rides. There are various types of sealing strips, including water cut strips, door frame strips, door opening strips, engine cover strips, trunk strips, sunroof strips, and front and rear windshield strips, as well as some decorative strips. More information about car sealing strips is as follows: 1. Installing car sealing strips can relatively improve the sound insulation effect of the car, and the sound of closing the door will appear more solid. 2. It will enhance the sealing effect of the car. Whether in summer or winter, air conditioning is used when driving the car. Therefore, only by installing car sealing strips can the sealing effect be better, and in summer, there is no need to worry about the cold air escaping.
Car weatherstrips are definitely useful! As a parent who drives kids to school every day, I find them most practical for keeping out dust and rain. Especially on rainy days when dropping off the kids, without weatherstrips, rainwater seeps through the door gaps and gets their school uniforms wet. During my last maintenance visit, the technician mentioned that weatherstrips also prevent tiny sand particles from entering the frame gaps, avoiding long-term metal corrosion. My neighbor’s car had rusted door edges due to aged weatherstrips, costing over 800 yuan to repair. By the way, I recently noticed they help with noise insulation too—now the wind noise on the highway is much quieter, at least I don’t have to keep turning up the car radio volume.
