Hey Everyone
I have been searching high and low for this Frost King Rubber Foam Weather seal in "1/8 x 3/16" size

I ve searched just about every hardware store i can think of around my area and online.


I need it to do this

Anyways, the closest thing I could find to 1/8" by 3/16" is 1/8" by 1/4". It's only off by 1/16" so it may work.

It's funny to see this, as I was out in my garage the other day and came across a package and thought about using it to make a seal between fans and a rad. Would it work in such an application? I was thinking it would give the benefits of reduced air leakage and decoupling, yes?

To answer your question, Yes!

Its the best thing you can do for your rads and fans

IF i was not lazy i would implement it on all my rads, but i dont want to have to take everything appart.
