Our window zipper weatherstripping has deterioted. I’m measuring the window channel width as 1/2” but am not finding zipper in this size. Does anyone know the exact replacement size and where to procure material. Any advice appreciated. Thank you.
 
Thank You for the timely reply

Thanks Gary that site is perfect.

When you replace yours did you find the window channel tapers inward or is it a true 1/2" channel? If so, my assumption is you used the 7/16' width X 7/16" depth. My zipper is "rotten" so I can't get anything but crumps when I tried to extract a piece to measure.
 
I have not had to replace it as yet, so I really can't help you with that question.
 
Thanks again for the information. I will let you know what I end up trying. My current thought is to go with the 7/16".
 
Yes, please report back with the info! It's always good to collect answers before you really need them!
