The Seal Strip - Rear Quarter Glass Seal Strip Right, identified by
part number 1497715-00-D, is a specialized rubber component
designed to seal the right-side rear quarter glass of the vehicle
it is engineered for. Crafted from high-quality rubber, this seal
strip plays a critical role in maintaining the integrity of the
vehicle’s interior and enhancing overall comfort and protection.
Made from durable rubber, the seal strip offers excellent
flexibility and resilience. Rubber’s inherent properties allow it
to conform tightly to the contours of the rear quarter glass and
its surrounding frame, ensuring a secure, gap-free seal. This
material is also highly resistant to environmental factors such as
UV radiation, temperature fluctuations, rain, and road debris,
preventing cracking, hardening, or degradation over time. Its
robust construction ensures long-term performance, even under the
constant stress of vehicle movement and exposure to harsh
conditions.
The primary function of this seal strip is to create a barrier
against external elements. It effectively blocks water, dust, dirt,
and moisture from entering the vehicle’s interior through the gaps
around the rear quarter glass. This protection is vital for
preserving the interior upholstery, electrical components, and
structural integrity of the vehicle, preventing water damage, mold
growth, or corrosion.
By eliminating air gaps between the glass and the frame, the rubber
seal strip helps reduce wind noise and external sounds from
entering the cabin. This contributes to a quieter, more comfortable
driving experience, especially at higher speeds where wind
turbulence around the glass can generate significant noise.
The rubber material also acts as a buffer, absorbing vibrations
between the glass and the vehicle’s body. This minimizes rattling
or shaking of the glass during driving, particularly on rough
roads, enhancing both comfort and the longevity of the glass and
surrounding components.
With dimensions of 40152 (assumed unit: mm), the seal strip is precision-engineered to fit
the specific contours of the right-side rear quarter glass area.
Its compact size allows for a snug installation within the limited
space between the glass and the frame, ensuring optimal sealing
without interfering with the vehicle’s exterior design or
functionality.
