We have 4 casement windows installed as Viwinco in August 2007, thus Certainteed windows? window size 35.5000x59.5000; Sash 33.6250 x57.6250. Window seal or weastherstripping needs replacing in all 4 windows. How many strips of (whatever type you suggest)weatherstipping do we need? Photos uploaded. Your advice will be appreciated.

We may have a match for this, but it looks like yours is damaged. I cannot tell how it installs in the window; whatever it uses appears to have been ripped off. Do you have an undamaged sample we can see?

We cut a piece off since it was already out of the groove or gap where the small part of strip fit is suppose to fit in. And actually where the piece is suppose to fit into or slide into the groove I can see in the groove--perhaps residue of the small part of seal. Hope the photo helps

I'm afraid that this photo doesn't clarify things. Would it be possible to see an undamaged sample at the same angle from which you took your original pictures?

I hope these two shots can better clarify.Hopefully you can enlarge photos to get a closer look? As you can see in img 2076 there is damage-a split in the seal. Hard to find piece not damaged. My son removed this piece-says it slides out of groove. Thank you for sticking with me on this.

Perfect, thank you! See our 58-056. This appears to be the same shape as yours, and even pushes in with a kerf, like you show in these new photos. I would just go over our dimensions to be sure they're the same size.
