wthree3 Posted May 10, 2022 Report Share Posted May 10, 2022 Beware buying the style that is listed as vinyl rubber. The bulb and push-on section are two different materials and they are poorly sonic welded or glued and they separate very easily. You will forever be super glueing the bulb to the base. Buy the EDPM type. The entire section is one material and is coextruded. It will not separate. I have bought both, the vinyl rubber type was junk. I replaced it all with the EDPM type which is holding up great. Trick is getting the perfect height, otherwise your hatches will not sit flush. Will look for the part number when I get home.

FLfishchaser Posted May 10, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2022 I bought the Master four years ago and it has fallen apart. I'm definitely interested in an alternative product. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lil Bingo Posted May 11, 2022 Report Share Posted May 11, 2022 We spent about two hours, and 10 bucks worth of super glue gel, gluing the two pieces back together today. We'll see how long it lasts. Originals stayed together 15+ years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wthree3 Posted May 12, 2022 Report Share Posted May 12, 2022 1120a232 is the first type which is made of two different materials. It fit well but falls apart easily. Don't waste your money. 12335a15 is what I'm using now. Fits well but is a little bit taller when compressed and firmer. Hatches sit a little proud until they are latched. Fit depends on the compressed height of the seal and the lip height on your hatches. Suggest buying enough for one small hatch to check the fit before committing to a large buy. My boat is a 2005 18.5 Master Angler so YMMV. Good stuff shown on the the left, junk on the right. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
