Milgard Casement window exterior bubble seal

Handy Person from Kauai
They're series 5520 C-C20/C-C40?

I've attached photos of the channel the seal slides into and measurements of the seal.

Thanks for reaching out to us. We've come across this seal before but I'm afraid we were never able to track down a good match. The options I've related on this page appear to be our best options but they are still very different so we're not optimistic they would work. I am very sorry for the inconvenience.

I'm afraid we've never received confirmation as to whether the related seals worked or not.  If you decide to give them a try, our return policy can be found here, just in case.

I believe the 58-200 will work.  I just ordered a section of that and will let you know if it works because I will be buying lots more if it does.  Thanks for your time and help in this metter.  Jim.

Unfortunately the 58-200 did not work.  The kerf is slightly too small for a good tight fit and the flap is not quite wide enough and doesnt fill the gap properly no matter which direction I install it.  I think a 1/2 inch bulb or foam filled may work if it had a larger kerf.  The kerf on the existing meausures 1/4 inch across but the slot it fits into on the window is 1/8 inch for a tight fit.  do you have anything like that?  I cant send the order back because I cut off about three inches to test the fit.  Thanks, Jim.

Unfortunately, we don't sell a seal that meets the specifications that you need. Contacting Milgard directly may be worth a shot, though we can't make any guarantees. I am very sorry that we can't supply a suitable option.

I'll retract the post that stated the 58-200 will not work.  After further testing I placed it on with the flap towards to outside of the window and it's seems to be exactly the right fit for the 3 inch section I tested.  I will test one whole side next.  But I believe this will actually work for a direct replacement for the old style.  Jim
