RichardBH Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 Hi all My narrow boat has the ? Hopper windows, ie the small top windows that pivot inward. With age they have bedded lower so I presume the rubber the window pane rests on has worn and now only just fasten closed when the swivel locks are turned into position. Please could I be advised on where I can get new rubber strip or a fix to raise the glass panes so they fasten shut properly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Brooks Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Seals + Direct. Self adhesive closed cell neoprene foam strip. Available in a variety of thickness’s and widths. Also Hills Rubber of Reading. I fitted it in a long "V" at each end of the hopper stuck to the sealing face of the frame and the aluminium bracket the hopper drops back into. I glued lengths of rubber U section to the bottom of the hopper glass slightly shorter than the hopper sp rain could leak from each end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
