Question Replacement Window gasket?

I am getting some separation of this window seal on the curved windows on my 1987 Excella. Not sure what the gray seal is called. Anyone know how I can fix this without removing the window?



And if I have to remove the window do you know what this piece is called and where I could get a new one?

Try Out of Doors Mart or Inland RV, they specialize in Airstream parts. Give them model year or go to their website.

Good luck!

I just ordered gaskets from Vintage Trailer Gaskets. Their website has great schematics for Airstream windows by year, as well as diy instructions. Really solid resource. My one criticism is that their shipping costs seem a little steep.

I’m replacing gaskets & seals on all my double pane windows. Good luck to you!

i second going to vintage trailer gaskets. ordered to start working on my windows. if you have any questions call the number and the owner will walk you through your project with years of experience. i had trouble getting the stack window sash apart (pins were rusted badly) and he gave hints to get it apart with the least risk to breaking the glass

Replacing double-lip(?) seal

My windows (1969 Sovereign) seem to have a double seal, one on the frame and one on the window. I'm trying to confirm that what I need to do is remove both of those and replace them with a single D-gasket on the window, nothing on the frame.

Does this seem right?

I haven't tried calling the gasket place, that might be a good idea. Thanks!
