Mysterious material in top hopper


Featured Posts

Hi all,

 

I have taken apart some second hand top hoppers, cleaned them up and repainted them. The rubber seals were completely deteriorated and I have managed to order most of the parts necessary to put them back together. Although I’m unsure as to what this piece is and where to find it! I have sent pictures to seals direct and they can’t pin point it either. It’s an extremely wafer thin piece of ribbed foam. It’s sticky on one side although I’m not sure if it was originally adhesive or glue was applied. It was was put between the glass and the aluminium frame... can anybody help!? 
 

thanks!

This is my first time actually answering a question rather than asking them so it might be wrong, but I came upon this

and wondered if it might be your mystery material? Sheer conincidence that I read this post and saw it whilst looking on Amazon for something completely different.
