Rubber channel cover for sliding windows

[dmdigital]

I need to get new rubber for the channels in the rear sliding windows.
NOT the felt as I have the Garrison kit to replace the bailey channel felt with rubber and
NOT the outer "gasket" that covers the rivets.
The old rubber has gone hard particularly at the ends. Does anyone know of a direct replacement for this that I can buy by the metre as I'm not able to just drop down to a local rubber supply place.

I don't know the garrison kit, but the felt lined bailey channel that replaces all the rotten stuff in your defender sliding window frame is profile No. 350.360.

This is what I posted some time ago when I did my rear window.


"After getting the wrong sized bailey channel to fix my rattly window,I tracked down the wholesaler and got the code for the correct stuff. You can get it from them by calling in or by phone order /mailout. Also you can order it through any Clarke rubber store. The clarke bloke at castle hill (sydney), says he will also stock it. The code is ; 350.360 flocked bailey channel .The company; Spectrum

They also have a website ,but it's currently under repair or construction or something.
You,ll need 4 metres to get right around both sliding panes of each window you tackle. This makes for a VERY snug fit. I ripped out both the upper and lower felt from my window even though the upper stuff was not in such a bad state, and perhaps there's a case for leaving the top felt in place and only replacing the bottom piece where all the crud and wear occurs. this option might result in an easier sliding finished job, and only use half the material. BTW the 4 meters I got cost about $29.00"

Thanks Don, but the kit I have replaces the felt with rubber channel so that's in hand. The stuff I'm after is the rubber that sits in the gap of the non-sliding portions of the frame. There's two sections one on the inside of the sliding window and one to the rear of the fixed glass but they have the same profile.

DMD nave a look here and see if you can find something suitable

Thanks for the link. I think I've got it sorted elsewhere but that could be useful if I need anything else.
