Universal one-piece slide-out seal combining a hollow bulb and ball-tip wiper in a single peel-and-stick strip. The wiper flexes in or out as the slide moves and the bulb seals against the RV body when the slide is closed — two sealing modes in one profile. A hinged hinge section with adhesive backing adapts the seal to right angles, varied wall thicknesses, and thin lips, making it compatible with almost any slide-out seal configuration. Exclusive skirted 3M Peel-N-Stick adhesive. Commonly found on Forest River fifth wheels and 2013 Itasca Meridian motorhomes, and compatible with Brinkley, Coachmen, Grand Design, Newmar, Prime Time, Sand Piper, and Winnebago models. Black, 60 ft. Made in USA.
The Steele Rubber Products 90-3454-265 is a one-piece peel-and-stick RV slide-out seal that integrates a hollow bulb and a ball-tip wiper into a single continuous strip. Most slide-out sealing systems use two separate components — a static bulb seal and a separate wiper seal installed in distinct locations. This one-piece design combines both functions: the wiper section flexes inward or outward as the slide extends or retracts, maintaining contact with the slide box face throughout the full range of motion, while the hollow bulb compresses against the RV sidewall when the slide is fully retracted — creating a static perimeter seal that blocks weather, moisture, and pests from entering through the slide gap. One strip handles the full sealing requirement for a slide-out opening.
The ball-tip on the wiper end is a specific design feature Steele Rubber calls out for improved wiper action — the rounded tip maintains smoother contact with the slide box surface during extension and retraction and allows the wiper to flip cleanly at each end of travel rather than catching or folding over. Between the ball tip and the super flexible wiper section, this seal is an effective replacement for virtually any wiper length currently in use on RV slide-outs.
Universal adaptability is built into the profile through the hinged section with adhesive backing that connects the wiper to the bulb base. This hinge allows the wiper arm to rotate relative to the base and mount successfully on right-angle frame edges, walls of different thicknesses, and even thin structural lips where a rigid one-piece profile would not lay flat or adhere correctly. The 3M Peel-N-Stick adhesive is protected by Steele Rubber's exclusive skirting design — rubber skirts on both sides of the recessed tape shield the adhesive from moisture and debris for lasting adhesion and a clean finished look.
Ball-tip wiper flexes with slide-out movement to seal dynamically during extension and retraction; hollow bulb compresses against the RV sidewall when the slide is closed for a static perimeter seal — one strip, both functions
Hinged connection between wiper and base has adhesive backing and allows the wiper to adapt to right-angle edges, different wall thicknesses, and thin lips — replaces almost any slide-out seal configuration without custom fitting
Rounded ball tip maintains smooth contact across the slide box face during movement and allows the wiper to flip cleanly at each end of travel — improved wiper action and wiper flip vs. standard flat-tip wiper profiles
Exclusive skirted recessed design shields 3M adhesive tape edges from moisture and debris — prevents edge-lifting failure and delivers a clean, finished look with no exposed tape after installation
Measure Before Ordering: The overall dimensions of this seal are 15/16" H x 3-3/16" W. The 3-3/16" width covers the full wiper arm reach from the adhesive base to the ball tip. Before ordering, remove a section of your existing slide-out seal and measure both the height of the bulb and the total wiper arm width to confirm this profile is the correct replacement size for your specific slide-out. Compatibility: This seal is commonly found on current Forest River fifth wheels and 2013 Itasca Meridian motorhomes, and is also compatible with Brinkley, Coachmen, Grand Design, Newmar, Prime Time, Sand Piper, and Winnebago models. Compatibility is not guaranteed — the above is not an exhaustive list and actual fit may vary by model, production year, and manufacturing variation. Always measure your existing seal before purchasing. Maximum Continuous Length: Due to shipping constraints, the maximum continuous piece length is 75 feet. For orders greater than 75 ft, contact Steele Rubber Products to specify where pieces should be sectioned.
Part Number: 90-3454-265 (also known as 70-3800-265) Available Pre-Cut Lengths (Same Profile): • By the foot — custom length, ships as one continuous piece • 15 ft — Part 90-3452-265 • 30 ft — Part 90-3453-265 • 60 ft — Part 90-3454-265 (This Item) Maximum Continuous Length: 75 ft — for orders exceeding 75 ft, contact Steele Rubber to specify section points Best For This Length (60 ft): Full-perimeter slide-out seal replacement on larger slide-outs, wide slides, or when replacing seals on multiple sides of a slide opening in a single order. Covers most standard RV slide-out perimeters with material to spare for trimming to exact fit. Note: Always measure the existing seal's height and wiper width before ordering. Compatibility is not guaranteed. See additional product photos for complete cross-section dimensions.
Before You Begin: Measure your existing seal's height and total wiper width to confirm the 15/16" H x 3-3/16" W profile is the correct replacement. Remove a short section of the old seal if needed to measure accurately. Installation Steps: 1. Remove Old Seal: Completely remove the old slide-out seal from the mounting surface — pull or peel the old adhesive backing away and remove all residue 2. Clean the Surface: Wipe the mounting surface with isopropyl alcohol and allow to fully dry — clean, dry surface is critical for lasting 3M adhesive bond 3. Measure and Cut: Measure the slide-out perimeter run and cut the seal to length with scissors or a utility knife 4. Orient the Seal: Confirm the bulb base will adhere to the mounting surface and the ball-tip wiper arm will contact the slide box face — the hinge section allows adjustment for right angles and varied wall thicknesses 5. Peel and Press: Starting at one end, remove the backing paper a few inches at a time and press the seal firmly along the full length — do not remove all backing at once 6. Test Slide Cycle: Extend and retract the slide-out to confirm the wiper flexes correctly across the slide box face and the bulb compresses against the RV sidewall when fully retracted
