Expert in Custom Rubber & Silicone/Plastic Tubing, Seals, and Profiles – Comprehensive Solutions for Sealing, Fluid Transfer, and Structural Applications.
A TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) profile for car pedals is a high-performance, slip-resistant cover designed to enhance grip, durability, and safety on accelerator, brake, and clutch pedals. It combines the flexibility of rubber with the strength of plastics for optimal pedal control. Key Features & Benefits ✔ Anti-Slip Surface – Textured or ribbed design ensures firm foot grip, even in wet conditions. ✔ Weather & Wear Resistant – Withstands UV rays, temperature extremes (-40°C to 90°C / -40°F to 194°F), and repeated abrasion. ✔ Lightweight & Durable – More impact-resistant than rubber, with no cracking or hardening over time. ✔ Easy Installation – Snap-on or adhesive-backed for quick retrofit on metal/rubber pedals. ✔ Customizable – Available in colors (black/red/silver) and logos (sport/SUV variants). Material Advantages vs. Rubber Property TPE Traditional Rubber Weight 20-30% lighter Heavier Abrasion Resistance Higher Wears faster Oil Resistance Excellent Moderate Applications Performance Vehicles – Enhances pedal feel for racing/sports cars. Electric Vehicles – Compatible with drive-by-wire pedal systems. Commercial Trucks – Reinforced versions for heavy-duty use. Installation Tips Clean pedal surface with alcohol before applying adhesive types. For snap-on designs, ensure full engagement with pedal edges. Replace if tread pattern becomes smooth (typically 5+ years).
