If you want a p shaped bath screen seal that lasts, keeps water in, and saves you from replacing it every few months, keep reading.
What Is a P Shaped Shower Screen Seal?
A P shaped shower screen seal—sometimes called a curved shower screen seal for a P shaped bath—is a clear strip that fits neatly to the bottom of your shower screen.
Because the glass curves around the bath, the seal follows the same round profile, which is why it’s known as “P shaped.”

Using a P bath screen seal creates a tight barrier between the curved glass and the bath edge.
That means no more splashes on the floor, and no risk of water dripping through to the ceiling below.
Buying Guide – How to Choose the Right Seal
Choosing a P shaped shower screen seal is similar to picking any other bottom shower door seal.
The key difference is that this one needs to match the curved glass of your bath screen.
If the curved shower screen seal for a P shaped bath doesn’t follow the same arc as your glass, installation becomes almost impossible.
You’ll struggle to clip it on, risk damaging the strip, and end up wasting your money.

We’ve seen it happen: people buy a cheap P bath screen seal online for £20, only to throw it away within minutes because it won’t fit.
At SIMBA, our P shaped bath screen seals are made with precision tooling that matches the exact curve of your glass.
Many homeowners make the same mistakes when buying shower seals.
