Weather seal for metal sash

I'm looking for weatherseal for these aluminum windows. This seal was on the bottom of the sash. Not one window in the house has any of this seal left. You can see a groove in the bottom of the sash where is must have gone originally. The sash frame is 1-/3/8" thick. Can you suggest what type of seal these might have used? The is no manufacturer's information on any window.

I'm afraid there's no way to tell from this picture. Without an undamaged sample to use as a comparison, it would be next to impossible to find a match. I would carefully go over the window just to see if you can find a sample that isn't quite so deteriorated.

I hope these pictures are better. The window is aluminum
And I need the seals for the bottom.

I've received your new pictures, but I'm afraid they don't show anything new. The only way to identify a match is by going off a previously existing sample. There is no way to know what weatherseal you have based on just seeing the window. If you do find a sample, we need you to remove it and show us its end profile. In the meantime, you can see our entire selection here.
