The strip is formed from two plastic materials and comprises a rigid base 6 for securing to two glass panels 3, and at least two flexible fins 7, each fin projecting from a longitudinal edge of the base, a first fin sealing against a chamfered edge 5 of the first glass panel and a second fin sealing against a chamfered edge 5 of the second glass panel. The plastic materials may be transparent and UV stable. Flat surfaces of the base may be secured to adjacent edges 2 of panels to connect them edge to edge with their plane surfaces 4 aligned. Each longitudinal edge of the base may have a pair of opposing fins for sealing against chamfers on the panels. The fins may be perpendicular to the base, or angled slightly towards each other. The base may be secured to the panels by tape 10. The strip may be formed by co-extrusion.
