Default Supplier for rubber seals for conservatory?


"Roger Mills" wrote in message
...
All the windows and polycarbonate roofing panels on my 20 year old uPVC
conservatory are held in by uPVC glazing beads, fitted with rubber a
sealing strip which has quite a complex cross-section - see
http://www.mills37.plus.com/Glazing_seal.JPG

These rubber strips have all shrunk such that the roof sometimes leaks. It
doesn't always do it - it depends on wind direction - but is nevertheless
annoying. I would like to replace the rubber strips, but don't know where
to get replacements. I'm not quite sure of the correct description for
them, which makes Goggling difficult!

I would be very grateful for any help both in namimg them correctly and in
suggesting suppliers who might be able to supply this stuff. The original
conservatory suppliers have long gone out of business, so I can't ask
them! I have a feeling that they got their materials from Germany at the
time, but I'm not certain of that. As far as size goes, the max horizontal
dimension (in the orientation of my photo) is about 20mm and vertical 9mm.

TIA.

They are willing to send a sample if you ask.
I have used them for about 30+ years. They are the "Experts" in rubber
extrusions.
