Does anybody know where/if these gaskets can be purchased and replaced on my outdoor hatches?

Thanks

I think I just answered my own question, but will keep the post up for reference. It looks like this is going to be the right stuff. http://a.co/dtvoGTY

Can you let us know how that 3/4" Camco vinyl insert fits?

The irony is that I just bought a roll of this, but misplaced it before I could check the fit :x

Ours is narrower than the typical insert, but I'm not sure how the published size relates to the final width in our hatch frames -- because in the end it bulges up by design into that half-round shape.

Will do. I pulled out some of mine and measured it and it is 3/4". Hopefully this will work.

Update on vinyl trim insert replacement:

The camco stuff was crap, extremely stiff and impossible to install. I bought identical 3/4" Trim Insert from RV Designer not expecting much, but it is way better, really soft and supple and easy to install. What would have taken likely 1-2 hours with the camco brand will now take 10-15 minutes with this product - http://a.co/gEumgad

To be honest I have used a lot of Camco products over the years and find the quality lacking but they are in most places that carry RV parts.

Thanks so much for the update. Thanks to your testing I'm going to go for the better stuff and not even try the Camco.

Kind of funny how the Amazon link (at least at the moment) has one roll at $11.26 and two rolls at $25.50. "Buy two and don't save!" :lol:

Nice find, wish they had it in black tho. Only molding I can find in black is the Camco.
