Greetings,

I’ve recently picked up an Alaska Channing and am looking for sources for the gaskets. I would like to buy and replace all gaskets (strong back, Channel gasket for grate, etc.) before the season starts.

Any recommendations greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Should be pretty basic J--rope type or flat---any good hardware should have them

Good hardware stores carrying a selection of gasket material beyond the standard fiber glass rope seems to be far and few between here in Connecticut. Most that I’ve visited have no flat gasket and certainly no gaskets that are wire reinforced and with self adhesive backing like the strong back gasket.
