Can anyone suggest a supplier/manufacturer of replacement rubber seals for plastic windows?
The companies that come up in a quick google don't seem to have the type we need, and a couple of companies who say they will manufacturer to order, have not even bothered to reply - we're not talking of 1/2 a metre either, but rather hundreds of metres
cheers

The company you want is Euroseal in Birmingham. Here is their catalogue for seals for uPVC windows.
If you ring them up, they'll send you a sample of a given type so that you can check that it's correct.
[I've currently got a tub of each of two types sitting in my garage, waiting to be fitted to my conservatory]
- we're not talking of 1/2 a
Seals are usually extruded from EPDM rubber.I used to use a company called D J Profiles Ltd.They were a manufacturer not just a stockist.I can`t remember where they were but possibly Telford.

Bloody hell - only 30 mins up the road. I happen to need some replacement for my ali windows - that's for that link. I'll shall have to see if there's anything in the catalogue that's vaguely similar.
OK thanks everyone.
This seemed like a simple thing, but what I've found is that if you have some plastic frames of just 10 years old, then the system and the rubber seals can be obsolete and damn impossible to find - unless you want to pay for a few thousand metres to be made from new tooled templates.

Have you checked the Euroseals reference which I gave? If you scroll down, there are lots of pages showing hundreds of exotic cross-sections. The seals for my 20-year-old conservatory are not in regular production, but they still have the dies and were happy to make a single 150 metre tub for me without asking for silly money.
