20mm Bridge Packers

About 20mm Bridge Packers

20mm bridge packers are used to support and space sealed units within frames that have a 20mm rebate clearance. Unlike flat packers, bridge packers span the glass edge and grip the unit, preventing lateral movement during and after installation.

Glazing Supplies Direct 20mm bridge packers are manufactured from high-impact polystyrene (HIPS) in the UK. Available in bags and bulk trade packs for glazing and window installation companies.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a bridge packer?

A bridge packer is a U-shaped plastic packer that bridges across the edge of a sealed unit. It supports the unit vertically and prevents it from moving within the frame rebate.

How do 20mm bridge packers differ from flat packers?

20mm bridge packers grip the glass edge and provide both support and lateral restraint. Flat packers only support the glass from below and do not prevent side-to-side movement.
