OT - Door Weatherstripping

[Buck Turgidson]

Not exactly related to WW, but I have exterior doors with a flat copper weatherstripping band that is about 1/25" wide. It is tacked into the jamb about every inch or so.

It is cracked so I'd like to replace it, since it seems pretty effective. However, I can't seem to locate a source for it. Anyone know of any supplier that carries it?

Funnily enough, I asked a similar question a week or two ago. Attached is my question and Mel's reply.

A quick google for bronze weatherstrip found this supplier. (USA I'm afraid)

is a flat strip you nail on and run a tool down to make it bow outwards although I notice they also list some V-strip too.

Thanks. I didn't see it at my Borg here in No. Va.

(Wednesday) after charging me only $5 shipping. I highly recommend them.

Thanks.
