Stern Door Seals for the marine industry

Stuart Bulbeck

When it comes to boat maintenance, one of the most overlooked yet essential components are the stern door seals. The stern door seals, is usually a rubber or silicone seal that is designed to create a watertight seal between the boat's hatch and the surrounding structure.

This seal is critical in preventing water from entering the boat's interior, which can cause damage, mildew, and other issues.

There are many different types of stern door seals available, and choosing the right one for your boat is important. Here are some things to consider when selecting a stern door seal:

  1. Material: Stern door seals are typically made of rubber or silicone. Rubber is a common choice because it is durable and can withstand exposure to UV rays and saltwater. Silicone is also a good option because it is resistant to temperature changes and does not crack or become brittle over time.

  2. Profile: The profile of the seal refers to its shape and size. The most common profile shapes are D-shaped, P-shaped, and E-shaped. The profile you choose will depend on the shape of your hatch and the surrounding structure.

  3. Size: The size of the seal is crucial in ensuring a proper fit. It's essential to measure the dimensions of your hatch and select a seal that matches those measurements.
