Weather strip for motor vehicle.

摘要

A weather strip (71A) for attachment to a flange (44) of a body panel of a motor vehicle includes a U-shaped trim portion (72) in which a metal core (75) is embedded and a sealing portion (74) formed on an outer surface of the trim portion (72). The trim portion (72) has flange gripping portions (73) which project inwardly from opposed side walls for gripping the flange (44) on both sides thereof. The weather strip (71A) is attached to the flange (44) by caulking the side walls of the trim portion (72) with the flange (44) inserted between the flange griping portions (73). One flange gripping portion to be located outside the flange (44) in the attached state thereto is composed of a sponge layer which covers the inner surface of the trim portion (72) and is to come into pressurized contact with an opposed flange surface of the body panel.
