Kolbe window parts

Quick Learner from Pennsylvania, USA
Hi,
I'm looking for 3 items for some older Kolbe casement windows (estimated installation is the 80's) that are structurally sound but need TLC.
(1) See photo 1, looking for the weather stripping that fits in the kerf. Looks like it was bubble type (similar to 58-053?), but hard to tell because it's so dry rotted.
(2) See photo 2, the white weather stripping on the frame.
(3) Also, do you have replacement crank hardware for these windows (older style)?

thanks very much!!

Hello,

We'd be happy to help but we would need to see end profile photos of your original seals uninstalled to determine our best replacement options. I understand that it can be tough to get a clear end profile of the seal once it is dry-rotted and breaks easily, but that would be the only way for us to narrow down your options. 

We do carry a selection of casement window operators but we would need to see a clear, top-down photo of your operator so that the base and arms that move the sash are fully visible. Thank you!

Take a look and compare the specifications of the 39-031 operator below to yours. The key dimension would be the length of the shorter link arm. We also offer the 39-032 opposite-handed versions. Both operators can be used with the 39-107FK handle and cover kit.

As for your seal, unfortunately, we would still need to see an end profile photo and an undamaged piece to compare the shape to our replacement options. Thank you.
