Abstract

A sealer tape and clip assembly in accordance with the present invention is adapted to be disposed in a recess, defined by at least one interior surface. The assembly includes a sealer tape member having an upper surface, a lower surface, and opposed side surfaces. An aperture extends through the upper surface and the lower surface, and is disposed between but does not extend through the opposed side surfaces. A clip body includes an upper portion, a lower portion, and an intermediate portion extending therebetween. The intermediate portion of the clip body is disposed in the aperture, the upper portion of the clip body engages the upper surface of the sealer tape member, and the lower portion of the clip body engages the lower surface of the sealer tape member. The sealer tape member sealingly bonds with the interior surface of the recess to secure the assembly in the recess.
