Abstract
A sealing profile includes an elastomer body with a first and a second profile section. The first profile section is harder than the second profile section and has an elongated cross section with an exposed flank. A first plane that is tangential with respect to the exposed flank subdivides the second profile section in the relaxed state into a first and a second sealing region.

- 16. A sealing profile for a vehicle to seal a gap between a first body element and a second body element surrounding the first body elements, the sealing profile comprising an elastomer body having a first profile section delimited by a first major face defining a plane and having first and second longitudinal edges and a second major face opposite the first major face, and a second profile section forming a cross-sectional region of the elastomer body, which projects over the plane in a direction from the second major face to the first major face and adjacent the first longitudinal edge, wherein the first profile section is harder than the second profile section.

28. A vehicle body comprising:
-
a first body element; a second body element spaced apart from the first body element and defining a gap therebetween; a seal at least partially disposed over the gap and secured to the second body, the seal including an elastomer body having a first profile section delimited by a first major face defining a plane and having first and second longitudinal edges and a second major face opposite the first major face, and a second profile section forming a cross-sectional region of the elastomer body, which projects over the plane in a direction from the second major face to the first major face and adjacent the first longitudinal edge, wherein the first profile section is harder than the second profile section. - View Dependent Claims (29)

30. A method for working a sealing profile to a vehicle body component comprising:
-
providing a sealing profile including an elastomer body having a first profile section delimited by a first major face defining a plane and having first and second longitudinal edges and a second major face opposite the first major face, and a second profile section forming a cross-sectional region of the elastomer body, which projects over the plane in a direction from the second major face to the first major face and adjacent the first longitudinal edge, wherein the first profile section is harder than the second profile section; pressing the first major face against a flat support; and cutting the sealing profile by bringing a blade into contact with the support through the sealing profile.
