16 Ft (5m) 196 Inch Sliding sash Windows Doors Tape Pile Draught excluder Brush Seal Strip weatherstrip 5mm x 6mm (3/16 1/4 Inch, Gray)

This is a brush style thin strip insulation that fits the groove on the sides of the flap on a doggie door. It’s designed to slide in the groove from the top which is not possible unless you took the door apart. But it works if you have a pointed round tool like they show at the bottom of their description page. Once I dug out the old strip bit by bit, I was able to insert the new strip the same way but I had to also use a small head thin screwdriver and push on both sides of the strip to get it in there. The backing is stiff and helps hold it in, just be patient and push both sides in all the way to the finish. No glue is needed. It worked well and our flap is tight once again! No more leaks or flies.

Summary from my experience, as someone who’s installed hundreds of weatherstripping products for various applications: • good pile, wouldn’t mind ~slightly~ higher density, but I’d say it’s definitely sufficient • DOES contain center polypropylene fin (this is GOOD as it acts as an airtight barrier - not many others I’ve come across on Amazon have this) • flexible backing (this being good or bad depends on what you need, in my case it was good, but you decide for your application) Now, for the sake of future viewers, to address all the unnecessary negative reviews others wrote due to it not having adhesive: 1) it clearly shows there’s no adhesive 2) stop writing bad reviews because you don’t know how to use a product and you’re in over your head, or because you didn’t check description. 3) adhesive weatherstrip is NOT a long term solution. You will not find any remotely decent product that uses adhesive as the main retention for its weatherstrip. Instead, this type of weatherstrip slides into a channel where it is mechanically retained and will stay as such until the weatherstrip itself wears out. I just wanted to clear this up for future readers, as I think it’s unfortunate when I finally find a good product, but is flooded with negative reviews from people who simply don’t actually know how to use the product.

Works well. I added some double sided tape to hold in place.

Perfect replacement for vinyl windows

Fit windows

6mm != 1/4" This stuff is of decent quality. But the 6mm x 6mm is a bit too shy of 1/4" and the strip doesn't fit well in grooves for 1/4" weatherstrip. It falls out easily and is hard to pinch to keep it from sliding around.

This fit my 20 year old Milguard Door with a custom door bottom. The original insert was worn out and I needed an insert with a 5mm top. This fit perfectly and is fairly stiff so slid in the door bottom easily. There is a piece of plastic between two rows of brush material which help with the weathersealing. The door opens and closes easily with no binding on the doorsill like a vinyl strip would cause. As to longevity, only time will tell.

The 7mm wide strip was a perfect replacement for the sealing strip on a Viking Industries vinyl sliding door. (Viking Industries co. is no longer in business)

I used the product to replace the existing draught excluder that was damaged. It was quite easy to install and works very well. The only down side was the price and the length wasn't long enough to do a complete patio door. So I had to buy two packs.

good quality

Same as the original seals.

Quality is good

Works well , work better if I could have got the right size ,still makes a difference
