In Substance Painter:

As you can see, the normal is not correct. It should look like this:

Hello @tvtomas,

Considering these are still two different meshes, it can be hard to totally get rid of the seam with such a normal. You can try to make a Bake matching by name, and see if this helps.

Hi Cyril!

The bake was matched by name. I looked at a few other examples again and noticed something. Could it be possible that baking clipping edges only works on lower angles? In my example it's a 90° angle. I tried baking a 45° angle and it worked without any problems.
