Cargo'Basement Weatherstripping

Has anyone found a source for the cargo/basement weatherstripping? It is: 1 1/2 inches wide, 3/8 inch high (thick), and ribbed (7 "bumps").

Previous posts on this subject were not productive.

Thank you Nightriderrv, but I've spent hours down that route (and yours) with no success. Somewhere out there is that special person with the correct answer!

If you look down this list of stuff that Aubrey's RV purchased from WRV when they went out of business, I think you may find some of the weather stripping. Here's the link from the Alpine Coach Association website: http://alpinecoachassociation.com/info/Aubreys.pdf

I spoke with Carolyn at Aubreys, and she sold the last roll a couple of years ago. She had no idea who the manufacturer was. Checked also with a couple of northwest RV places who picked up some WRV inventory - no luck.

WRV's guys referred to it as the Bart Simpson profile, cuz it resembles Bart's hair.

Fifteen (15) feet would do it. Twentyfour (24) is better.

I am not home, but will be this weekend. I believe I have some stashed somewhere. I will take a look.

If a vendor is found, I'd be interested in 100 feet or more.

Tom:

If you do have some, would you please see if there is any manufacturer identification available?

When I got some from WRV they told me it was $15 a foot. They gave me 10 feet but it does not have any PN# on it.

Post a picture of what you are looking for. About 18 months ago, it appeared that the weatherstripping on one of my slides was coming off, it's ribbed stuff as well. I went to the local RV store in Vegas near where I was staying, and bought 100 feet of the stuff. It's got 5 hills/4 valleys and is 9/16" wide. It was purchased from stag Parkway, a major RV parts supplier.

Try this link, they sell lots of different type of rubber seals stuff: Trim Lok - #1 Source for Plastic and Rubber Trims and Seals
