Rubber channel maybe?

Aircraft Spruce sells different extrusions.


Dang, this is really close.

What is it for? Maybe that will help find you the direction.

Trimming the sheet metal panels on my fencing. There WAS a place online that had it, but now their website is gone.

Someone somewhere has to have this stuff...

@rivermobster , you may try Benlo's RV in Irwindale if they're still around. That, and there used to be a glass shop on Foothill east of Glendora Ave that had stuff, but that's been years. Steele Rubber does have an extrusion like that, used as an early car lower door seal.

I don't see it? 🤷‍♂️
I can't find my old catalog...sorry, old school. It was under "dense extrusions".

Early Ford, 28-31, has one like it, or very close. Pn A-45988...I can't remember who sold in bulk though. I think the Ford places sell it in 30" lengths.

I would give the 80's a call and see if they have some old stock. You can try the 70's but you will need a rotary phone.

Yeah. I think I'm gonna just head over to Patton and pick up some 1" aluminum flat stock.

Not sure how long it will look good though. Maybe I'll rattle can it first.

Take some measurements and look it up on McMaster Carr. If you can't find the exact stuff order a few different sizes/versions. McMaster is great about returns. I had to do that with the read door seal on my toy hauler.
