THE ORIGINAL FULL PACKAGE SLIDE-OUT SEALING SYSTEM
Modern recreational vehicles now boast an array of features and conveniences, catering to outdoor enthusiasts who crave both adventure and the comforts of home. For those looking to maximize interior space, the ‘slide-out system’ is a game-changer. At Jaeger-UniTek Sealing Solutions, we’ve engineered the comprehensive Flip ‘N Seal Slide-Out Sealing System to elevate your RV experience. This all-inclusive sealing solution comprises the renowned Flip ‘N Seal, AquaDiverter, StyleCap, FlushFloor Reinforcer, and Hidewire Technology to prevent water intrusion and protect your RV.
The Original Flip 'N Seal®
While the “Slide-Out System” delivers an outstanding solution to maximize interior RV space, protecting the interior space from the outside elements creates a significant design engineering challenge. The sealing system plays a significant role in creating a watertight interior, minimizing temperature intrusions while delivering durability under dynamic and static loading conditions over a wide range of temperatures.
By working closely with RV manufacturers in rapidly expanding the use of Jaeger Unitek Sealing Solutions Patented Flip ‘N Seal Slide-Out Sealing System®, together, we have met the complex application demands with Slide-Out sealing requirements. The results are a watertight seal, a one-part sealing solution vs. a two-piece design, lower installation costs during seal preparation and installation, and the elimination of warranty claims. For consumers, this translates into the growing use of RV slide-outs to create more interior space, protection from the outdoor elements, satisfaction and enjoyment in the great outdoors.
