Windshield Rubber Extrusion...

[David M]

I'm getting new canvas this winter. I have long strips of rubber "extrusion" that when inserted into a channel on the top of the windshield, holds the visor in place.

I found a source in Tenn. The price is more than reasonable. However, I will still be getting the same thing; rubber.

Does anyone know if this extrusion comes in a newer or more stable material than rubber, say silicone? Is rubber the best material for this product because it is a bit stiff while still being flexible.

TIA.

From what I hae seen these extrusions are pretty specific to each particular window frame and channel, s you might be hard pressedto find the specific shapes in other materials.

It sounds like you have found the profile that you need, but check out a place called Aluminum2000 in PA. On their site they have a long lst of window gasketing.
