Exitex Slidepile Draught Excluder

Product Information

The Exitex Slidepile Draught Excluder is a pile-type draught excluder supplied as a 100 metre reel. It is a slidepile profile with a centre fin, intended for sealing gaps on windows and doors where a pile seal is required. The product is supplied in black.

The Exitex Slidepile Draught Excluder is available in a continuous 100m length and can be cut to size on site. The pile section compresses into the gap while the centre fin locates within a glazing bead or rebate to retain the seal.

Fitment & What to Check

• Measure the rebate or bead slot width to confirm the centre fin will engage and the pile width (6.9 mm) can be accommodated.
• Check the gap to be sealed against the protrusion (7.5 mm pile height) to ensure adequate compression without over-compression.
• Confirm there is sufficient depth in the glazing bead or rebate for the centre fin to seat and retain the slidepile profile.
• For external applications, verify compatibility with any finishing trims or beading present on the frame.

Common Ordering Mistakes

• Ordering by pile height alone without checking the 6.9 mm profile width and centre fin dimensions.
• Assuming off‑the‑shelf lengths rather than confirming that a 100 m continuous reel is required.
• Failing to confirm that the centre fin location aligns with the available slot in the bead or rebate.
