Rubber Sealant strips for windows

LLcoolJ27

Hi all,
I'm looking for a good industrial quality rubber seal stripping for the space between where my window closes. The one that I had has worn and I haven't been able to source a durable one yet but maybe I'm looking in the wrong place.

Can someone help me here or provide me with some guidance on where to get one?

Thanks in advance.

What sort of window is it and where have you looked?

Hi Colm,
It's a double glazed window. The frames are wooden. The closest thing i have found is here - http://www.amazon.co.uk/5m-White-profile-Weatherbar-Draft/dp/B00O03VDB8/ref=pd_bxgy_60_img_3?ie=UTF8&refRID=0SN0G769FTW5SAH0V57K
I'm still not sure as it looks flimsy and I wanted something hard wearing. Do you know how strong these ones would be?

How does your current seal fit in? I assume it's wedged in?

Hi Colm, it just literally sticks on with adhesive . There is no wedge for it to slide into. My last one seemed to be very hard wearing but I got a StormGuard one since in Woodies and it was useless, very light. Luckily the wind isn't whistling in but I think there's better ones out there.

I don't want to buy something and then find out it's not the right thing!

Hi guys, both images posted are of exitex self adhesive draught seal. Exitex are an irish company. Available in brown and white. You'll find them in any hardware shop, like Woodies or Chadwicks. Cost about 6 or 7 quid

What images are you talking about? I might call into Chadwick's and speak with them. Thanks for your help.
