Parkray 88 Glass Channel Seal replacements

[Ann Miller]

Anyone have any idea where I can get the glass channel seals for our old Parkray 88. We can get the glass easily - I even found one place has a pack of glass including the seals but we already have spare glass and don't really want to pay that much when we only need the seals. We don't want to take the door apart unless we have spare seals as we have no idea what they are going to be like and if they will need replacing. The Parkray is our only form of heating so we can't have it out of action for long. Everywhere I try does not do the parts any more - I also wondered if there was anything else you could use instead. I am talking about parts numbered 098025 and 098026. Picture attached of an old bit of seal.

I did see those but wasn't sure they would be okay to use on our Parkray. I suppose it is worth a try though. Have you used them yourself?

Not on a parkray but on hunters and efels,both of which have a number off glass strip's like the early parkrays.
You don't really have much choice but to try it really, just don't over tighten the fixings

Okay. Will bear that in mind. Thank you.

Can’t make photo out very clearly, but is it similar to this? https://www.dhsspares.co.uk/product/parkray-p126289-glass-ret-strip-top-btm-n-p-2400438

I think you
may find that thats the metal retaining strip that holds the glass in the fibre channel
