1" EPDM rubber bulb weatherstrip with tee base — slides into track on the inside edge of the slide-out outer wall. Anti-side-flop profile for a secure, snug seal. 1" H x 13/16" W — 60 ft roll. Black. Also known as 70-3832-265.
The Steele Rubber Products 90-3417-265 is a 1" Bulb Weatherstrip with Tee Base — an EPDM rubber bulb seal found on many RV slide-outs, typically located on the inside edge of the slide-out outer wall. The tee base slides into the track built into the slide-out frame, and when the slide-out is retracted, the bulb compresses against the camper wall or slide-out wiper to create a weathertight seal that keeps moisture, inclement weather, insects, and debris out of the coach.
The 70-3832-265 profile features a unique anti-side-flop design that prevents the bulb from flopping to one side under compression, ensuring the seal makes consistent, full contact with the mating surface every time the slide-out closes. This greater surface contact improves the effectiveness of the seal and helps maintain long-term sealing performance across repeated extension and retraction cycles.
Made from durable EPDM rubber for superior weather resistance and long-term outdoor performance. The 60-foot roll provides generous coverage for a full slide-out perimeter, multi-side applications, or larger coach configurations. Commonly paired with flat blade wiper weatherstrips, which are sold separately.

EPDM rubber construction provides superior weather resistance and long-term durability through all seasons
The tee base on this seal must match the track width on your slide-out frame. Before purchasing, measure the track opening on your existing slide-out to confirm this profile will fit. The 70-3832-265 tee base is a specific dimension — it is not universally interchangeable with all RV slide-out tracks. This seal is typically paired with a flat blade wiper weatherstrip, which is sold separately. Confirm you have the correct companion wiper for your slide-out configuration before completing your order. When in doubt, consult your RV's service documentation or measure the existing seal profile before ordering.
