Portlite gasket material

[mike_nickens1]

All of the gaskets on the portlites of our 1990 MT need replacing. The portlites are stainless steel, made by Jai Hai (?). The material is a solid black square rubber extrusion about 1/2" x 1/2". Any idea where I might be able to find some replacement material?

Thanks!

Windows are not very robust and distort easily , so the hollow rubber is used to make less pressure required to seal.

Or if a fool cranks down hard on only one dog ,marine rubber may help.

Thanks everyone! I've ordered some gasket materials and let you know how things work out.

Mike, remember to put the butt end at the top of the port.

Surgical tubing works too.

Surgical tubing works too.

With our 12 inch Liberty ship ports , which are robust I have used std shaft square flax packing .

Talk about long lasting!!
