U Channel

Post by Howard »

I'm looking for a source of rubber or vinyl U Channel that seals my windows inside an aluminum frame.

Looks exactly like this....

http://catalinadirect.com/vinyl%20glazi ... annel.html

But this supplier only has 3/16" and I'm looking for 5/16" x 5/16" with a 1/8" groove for the glass.

Seems easy enough, but I can't find it anywhere. The glass shops....no. The auto glass shops......no. McMaster Carr....nope.

I found some manufacturers on the Internet, but they only want to sell me a truckload.

Any suggestions?
