Default Heatproof adhesive for tumble dryer seal?

Hi folks,

My tumble dryer has a rubber seal between the door and opening which clips
onto a metal 'lip'. There was some kind of adhesive attaching it to the lip
which has come away - can anyone recommend a way of fixing it permanently?

Best wishes,

Sky

Silicone rubber may do it.

Yup, it certainly would, normal silicone is good for 200C+.
