A sealing device for at least one edge joint formed between a floor, a wall, or a ceiling and an adjacent cladding of drywall, the sealing device comprising:
- a sealing profile having a base body for sealing the at least one edge joint on the cladding,
- wherein the base body has a sealing web which forms a lateral contact surface for the cladding,
- wherein the sealing profile has a fastening portion in a direction of extent of the sealing profile,
- wherein the fastening portion is positioned on the sealing web,
- wherein the fastening portion is a distinct element from the sealing web, not coextensive with the sealing web, and adapted to form a positioning aid,
- wherein the sealing profile other than the fastening portion is formed in one piece and formed from a foam material or an elastomer,
- wherein the sealing profile has a slit, and
- wherein the slit extends parallel and adjacent to the sealing web over approximately half of the base body.
An edge joint formed between a floor, a wall, or a ceiling and an adjacent cladding of drywall, sealed with a sealing device comprising:
- a sealing profile having a base body for sealing the at least one edge joint on the cladding,
- wherein the base body has a sealing web which forms a lateral contact surface for the cladding,
- wherein the sealing profile has a fastening portion in a direction of extent of the sealing profile,
- wherein the fastening portion is positioned on the sealing web,
- wherein the fastening portion is a distinct element from the sealing web, not coextensive with the sealing web, and adapted to form a positioning aid,
- wherein the sealing profile other than the fastening portion is formed in one piece and formed from a foam material or an elastomer,
- wherein the sealing profile has a slit, and
- wherein the slit extends parallel and adjacent to the sealing web over approximately half of the base body.
A method for forming at least one edge joint between a floor, a wall, or a ceiling and an adjacent cladding of drywall, comprising sealing with a sealing device comprising:
- a sealing profile having a base body for sealing the at least one edge joint on the cladding,
- wherein the base body has a sealing web which forms a lateral contact surface for the cladding,
- wherein the sealing profile has a fastening portion in a direction of extent of the sealing profile,
- wherein the fastening portion is positioned on the sealing web, and
- wherein the fastening portion is a distinct element from the sealing web, not coextensive with the sealing web, and adapted to form a positioning aid,
- wherein the sealing profile other than the fastening portion is formed in one piece and formed from a foam material or an elastomer,
- wherein the sealing profile has a slit, and
- wherein the slit extends parallel and adjacent to the sealing web over approximately half of the base body.
