Density goes a long way
Weather Stripping may go unnoticed to the residential customer but the manufacturers and test lab technicians understand the importance of high density wool pile in windows and doors. While many producers of weatherstripping dilute the density of pile. Stern's Obicular Weather Stripping holds a consistent density of pile to support the fin and keep the window openings sealed. Please feel free to contact us to discuss the importance of pile in weatherstripping.
