Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What board thicknesses do these edge strip protectors fit?

A: The edge strips are available in three widths — 12mm, 15mm, and 18mm — making them suitable for a range of standard board and panel thicknesses commonly used in furniture and cabinetry. Choose the size that most closely matches your board edge for the best fit and coverage.

Q: Will the self-adhesive backing hold securely over time?

A: Yes. The adhesive on these TPE edge strips is designed for a strong, lasting bond on smooth surfaces such as MDF, particleboard, and plywood. For best results, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of dust before applying. Pressing firmly along the full length of the strip further improves adhesion.

Q: Can these edge strips be cut to a shorter length?

A: Absolutely. Each strip is 1 metre long and can be easily trimmed to your required length using scissors or a sharp utility knife, making them ideal for edges of any size.

Q: Are these strips suitable for outdoor furniture?

A: These edge protectors are primarily designed for indoor furniture and cabinetry use. While TPE offers good moisture resistance, prolonged outdoor exposure to UV and weather extremes may reduce adhesion performance over time.
