Bought 8 replacement windows back in 1991. The bottom strip that fits into the window grove has dried out on all the windows and the manufacturer no longer makes the window. Looking for a replacement strip to fit the track.

Can we see the butt end of the strip, like the diagrams below? That angle reveals the shape a lot more.

Windows were purchased through Interstate Windows in Pittston PA. They say they no longer manufacture this type of window and that the lifetime warranty is worthless.

Thank you. It's tough to tell for sure, but it looks like you have a kind of weatherseal like our 58-171 or 58-182. In fact, I would bet that what you have specifically matches one of these two. Ultimately, it will come down to your dimensions. Look them over and see which one is the better match.
