<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a lightweight weather strip for an automobile, having high sealability. <P>SOLUTION: In this weather strip for the automobile, at least a part of which is composed of rubber foam prepared by dispersing polyolefin resin of 5-25 pts.wt into EPDM rubber of 100 pts.wt, the polyolefin resin deformed approximately in the disc shape by foaming along a circumferential wall of bubbles 21 of the rubber foam 20 is dispersed in a state of surrounding the bubbles 21, the rubber foam 20 is used on at least a deformed part of the weather strip, when the weather strip is brought into contact with a mating member or the weather strip is mounted on a door and the like. The weather strip has sufficient rigidity in spite of an increased foaming ratio, which contributes on the lightening of the vehicle, provides the sufficient sealability and achieves the cost reduction. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO |
