Anyone know the official name for this sort of door seal?

A brush seal

Brush seals all seem to have springy nylon bristles. This is much finer with no resistance to the door closing against it. I'm guessing it might be a fire seal.

I've always known that stuff as "Schlegel"; apparently it was developed to seal the cockpit canopies of WW2 Luftwaffe aircraft.

Schlegel still make it as part of their weatherstrip range, but I don't need 100 metres of the stuff! There are a couple of online suppliers of similar products but the carriage kills it. I'll probably have to bodge something up from retail products. SF intumescent seal strips have a polyprop pile that may be the right size.
