Hi All,
My fridge door stripping around the door has become stiff and is in need of replacing. I have not yet measured its cross-section. If I had to guess it would be 5/8"X5/8" square, white foam with sticky tape on one side.
Does anyone have a source for it?
Thanks.
Haro.

One gasket source is your local ACE/True Value hardware store. Maybe not an exact match, but they sell a large variety of adhesive backed gaskets. Look for a Closed Cell gasket made from EPDM rubber that approximates your dimensions and it should work.
On another note, although not a perfect offset to the molded Lewmar opening port OEM gaskets, I replaced my leaking port gaskets with adhesive backed EPDM rubber. It does a very good job sealing for 2-3 years and takes minutes to replace vs. a lengthy, difficult job with the OEM port replacement gaskets.

Thanks, Paul, I had visited other hardware stores, but not ACE. I will try that next.
