Mylar Gap Seal

General Description

Mylar Gap Seal - is used for sealing the gap in front of the control surface to increase the performance of your sailplane. Pre-Curved Mylar is attached to the upper and normally the lower surface of the wing bridging the gap and resting on the control surface. Pre–Curved Mylar is also normally found sealing the elevator and rudder. Pre–Curved versus Flat Mylar is normally used because it will continue the seal as the control surface is deflected down. You must replace your Pre-Curved Mylar when it is no longer curved and doesn't seal with the control surface as it moves. 25mm to 38mm .2 mm thick.

Mylar Gap Seal price varies depending on selection. Use dropdown box above for selection and final price.
