What is the name of this window part?

Post by catseyes »

I have a wobbly window upstairs and have noticed it is missing the plastic U shaped strip that is on the top of all the other windows.
From what I can feel upstairs that channel goes over the top of the frame. I want to find it as a spare to see if I can replace it but I can’t for the life of me find out what it is called! Photo up close then one from afar.. strip at the top showing there.
Thank you ☺️

Tried those but they’re all thin. The part I’m feeling is really solid. It’s not bendy at all and quite thick. Feels like it’s going over the top of the frame but it continues past the window into our cladding.. at least it does on all the other windows bar one.. not the ones I’m showing here.
