WEATHER STRIP FOR AUTOMOBILE

PURPOSE:To prevent entrance of water drops to the interior of a car room by forming a drain lip, protruded in a wedge-shape from a direction extending at right angles with a seal surface on the car body side toward the outside of a car room, to a part of the outer surface of a seal lip, in a weather strip to seal a gap between a door back and a car body during closing of a door. CONSTITUTION:A drain lip 14 in a wedge-shape in cross section obliquely protruded toward the outside of a car room is formed integrally with the outer surface of a seal lip 13 formed of sponge rubber of a weather strip 11. Water drops D flowing down from a back door outer panel 9 to the seal lip 13 side is pointed to the outside of the car room rather than a direction extending at right angles with a seal surface 8 by means of the drain lip 14 so that the water drops are guided to the outside of the car room. This constitution induces the water drops D toward the outside of the car room and prevents the water drops from flowing around the surface, on the inside of the car room, of the seal lip 13.
