The PK55W17 perimeter gasket seals gaps around door frames to prevent air leakage and maintain building envelope integrity. This 204-inch adhesive-backed gasket installs on door frames where weatherization is critical for energy efficiency. Pemko designed the PK55 series with extremely low closing force requirements for tighter frame applications where standard gasketing creates excessive door resistance.
The half-inch wide PemkoPrene elastomer profile compresses easily while maintaining effective sealing properties. The white finish matches standard door frame colors in commercial applications. Self-adhesive backing eliminates the need for mechanical fasteners during installation.

This gasket meets UL 1784 air leakage standards, UL 10C fire door testing, ASTM E283 air infiltration requirements, and ANSI/BHMA A156.22 door gasketing specifications. GREENGUARD Gold certification ensures low chemical emissions for indoor air quality.
Fire-rated door assemblies require gasketing that maintains UL 10C listing compatibility during positive pressure testing. Door closers must overcome gasket compression while meeting ADA 5 lbs opening force limits when perimeter seals are installed.
