Covering edge of sheetmetal?

Not too sure where to ask this - so I will try here. I have cut out some openings in a case, now I want to cover the cut edge of the sheet metal with some type of rubber/plastic U shaped excrusion to give a more finished look. Where do I look for this?

I used door edging from Advance Auto, but you could always go with this, this, or this.

Hey there... this kind of goes with what I was wondering about

Go to the rather famous McMaster Carr website and search (upper left) for

"Edge Trim"

http://www.mcmaster.com/

Which do you think would be best to use?

I'm thinking Neoprene in # 8 style


Edit....hey theres a 8-Piece SBR Rubber Edge Trim Assortment for 4$ ... that'd be a good one to get

That would look great, IMO.

Great resource! Even offers colors other than black, chrome or gold. Not what I've been looking for, but still adds options! :up:

Fantastic thread. I was just trying to find the perfect material to accomplish something similar, and this was of great help. I already know of MCMASTER.COM - but the thought hadn't crossed my mind! GREAT stuff guys.
