Abstract: A sealing strip, especially for doors and windows, comprising a porous, resilient core and an outer covering which encloses the core and is circumferentially prolongated to form an elongated mounting flange extending lengthwise along the strip. A gas-proof, flexible foil material is inserted between the core and the covering and is likewise circumferentially prolongated. The foil material and the outer covering are bound to each other only in the region of the mounting flange so as to permit a certain sliding movement between those portions of the foil material and the outer covering, which enclose the core, when the strip is compressed or resiliently expanded.
