Abstract
A molding is described, the outer edge region of which comprises a thermally expandable material that has a high coefficient of friction in relation to metal or plastic. In its inner region this molding has an aperture and/or recess for receiving a mounting aid. The molding is suitable as a sealing and acoustically active bulkhead part and with the aid of friction forces can be fixed mechanically in the cavity of structural components without these components having to exhibit bores, apertures or other devices for fixing the bulkhead part.
