Quick Learner from Sandpoint, ID

How do we measure to determine if we need the .187 58-182 or 270 58-171 Tseal?

Hello! That's a great question. Those measurements describe the width of the "T" strip that will fit into the kerf or groove of your window or door. The diagrams below will hopefully provide a good example of what you need to measure.

Is the .270 and the .187 in mm or inches?

We unfortunately don't sell a weatherseal in this design with a 1/4" bulb. Can you verify that size? Can you also show us an end profile photo of the original?

Mine too appeared to be 1/4 inch but under closer inspection determined it to be slightly larger so ordered the larger size. We'll see?
