Glass Protection Pads & Glazing Packers – Self Adhesive PVC Transit Spacer Pads 24 x 18mm x 6,600 per roll
🔧 What are glazing packers?
Our self adhesive glass protection pads are designed for glazing, transport and installation. Also used as glazing packers, glass spacer pads, foam transit pads and temporary window spacers, these high-density PVC pads protect glass edges, frames and finished surfaces from knocks, scratches and pressure damage. Ideal for installers, fabricators and transport companies needing clean peel-and-stick protection.
Glazing packers are used to space, support and protect glass during window installation, preventing direct contact between glass and frame.
These PVC glazing pads provide fast, clean protection on site, with a peel-and-stick backing for quick positioning during fitting and transport.
These PVC glazing protection pads are designed to protect glass, frames and finished surfaces during installation, transport and temporary glazing works. Manufactured from high-density PVC with a low-tack adhesive backing, they provide reliable cushioning without leaving residue on painted or glass surfaces.
Supplied in large rolls of approximately 6,600 pads, these glazing pads offer a fast, cost-effective solution for installers who need consistent, clean protection on site. Available in red or blue for high visibility during fitting and inspection.

✅ Frequently Asked Questions
Will removal damage glass or paintwork?
No — the low-tack adhesive is designed to remove cleanly without damaging finishes when used within the stated temperature range.
How long can I leave the pads adhered?
They are intended for short-term protection during installation and transport. Extended exposure, especially outdoors or in high heat, may reduce adhesive performance.
Are they suitable for curved or uneven surfaces?
Yes — the flexible PVC construction allows slight conformity to curved or irregular surfaces.
Can I order other sizes or colours?
