The E457 flipper glazing rubber seal has multiple protruding ridges as well as a pronounced flipper lip which achieves a high performance weather seal. Can also be used on the many other upvc profiles used throughout the UK over the years No adhesive is required to fit, the gasket is designed to simply push in to a groove located around a sash or frame. Fitting new gaskets can solve many problems, draughty and leaking windows are one of the many symptoms of a failing gasket.
