National Guard Products 160V Dark Bronze Vinyl Perimeter Weatherstrip Head-and-Jamb Set
National Guard Products (NGP) model 160V is a vinyl perimeter weatherstrip head-and-jamb set finished in Dark Bronze with a black vinyl (TPV) insert. Engineered for commercial and institutional door openings, this screw-applied perimeter seal mounts directly to the frame stop on the head and both jambs, forming a continuous, airtight barrier around the door perimeter. Each set is made to order in five standard opening sizes — 3'0 x 7'0, 4'0 x 7'0, 6'0 x 7'0, 6'0 x 8'0, and 8'0 x 8'0 — and ships with all required #6 x 3/4" Stainless Steel Sheet Metal Screws included. UL-certified for positive-pressure fire door applications on hollow metal doors rated up to 3 hours and wood fire doors rated up to 90 minutes, the 160V delivers code-compliant perimeter sealing, superior air infiltration resistance, and long-term durability across an extreme temperature range.
High-Performance Perimeter Weatherstrip Features
- UL-Certified Fire Door Rating: Certified by UL to CAN/ULC-S104 and ANSI/UL10B, complying with NFPA 80 and NFPA 252 for hollow metal fire doors rated up to 3 hours and wood fire doors rated up to 90 minutes — making this seal a reliable choice for rated corridor, stairwell, and exit openings.
- Positive Pressure Certified: Also UL-certified to ANSI/UL10C, satisfying IBC, NFPA 80, and NFPA 252 positive-pressure requirements, ensuring the seal performs under the pressurized conditions that occur during a fire event.
- Aluminum Alloy Extrusion: The carrier extrudes from Aluminum Alloy 6063, T5 Temper — a commercial-grade architectural alloy prized for corrosion resistance, consistent dimensional tolerances, and long service life in high-traffic openings.
- Thermo-Plastic Vulcanizate (TPV) Insert: The sealing insert is manufactured from Thermo-Plastic Vulcanizate (TPV), a flame-resistant, moisture-resistant compound that maintains flexibility and sealing contact across an extreme temperature range of -40°F to 250°F — ideal for exterior and interior rated applications.
- Flame and Moisture Resistant: Both the aluminum extrusion and the TPV insert contribute to the assembly's flame-resistant and moisture-resistant performance, protecting building interiors from weather infiltration and meeting fire code material requirements.
- Slotted Screw Holes for Field Adjustment: Screw holes are slotted, allowing installers to fine-tune the lateral position of the seal against the door face for optimum compression and gap coverage without rework.
- Hardware Included: Each kit is furnished with #6 x 3/4" Stainless Steel Sheet Metal Screws — stainless steel construction prevents corrosion at fastener points even in humid or exterior-adjacent environments.
- Air Infiltration Performance: NGP designates the 160V as a recommended product for minimum air leakage, producing a tight continuous seal around the door perimeter to improve energy efficiency and occupant comfort.
- Economical Commercial Solution: The 160V is positioned as an economical perimeter weatherstrip that meets demanding fire and air infiltration standards without the cost premium of more complex sealing systems — an efficient choice for multi-opening projects.
- Complete Head-and-Jamb Set: Sold as a three-piece set (one head piece + two jamb pieces) cut to the specified opening size, simplifying procurement and ensuring all three frame members are finished consistently in matching Dark Bronze.

Pro-Tip for Perimeter Sealing
The 160VDKB mounts directly to the face of the frame stop on the head and both jambs, so no routing or mortising is required — making it one of the fastest perimeter seals to install in new construction or retrofit applications. Because the screw holes are slotted, installers can shift the seal slightly inward or outward before fully tightening the furnished #6 x 3/4" Stainless Steel Sheet Metal Screws, optimizing TPV contact with the door face for a consistent compression fit across the full height and width of the opening. For fire-rated openings, always verify that the completed installation — including all three sides of the perimeter set — matches the listing requirements of the door and frame assembly's UL file.
