Rubber seal for chimney?

[Joukko]

Where can one buy a rubber seal to have at the top of the chimney so that water doesn't run along the pipe? The pipe is about 165mm wide. My old seal is starting to disintegrate. Is there an online store or otherwise near Trollhättan?

if you know the brand of the skorstenen, then maybe they have.

No idea. Can't find anything in my papers.

Kuntze has a lot in rubber/plastic:

My tip is that instead of trying to find one of those caps, buy a tube of gasket replacement available at any well-stocked hardware store.
Something like this. http://loctite.fast.de/se/jpg/5661.jpg
The most important thing is that it withstands heat! The nice thing about that one is that it is flexible, so it can accommodate the expansion of the pipe.
Apply generously and shape it nicely with your finger.

That might be something. I'll take a look at this.

Orange motor silicone otherwise withstands high temperatures, but it's probably better to try to get a rubber cap in the right size.
Check with suppliers of chimneys if they have something roughly the right size.
Premodul, which we have, is 150mm and it might stretch to work on 165?
Otherwise, there are certainly other manufacturers that have the right size. Schiedel maybe?

I've sent some emails here and there but I'm not getting any responses.

Raising the thread after 10 years!

I have the same problem finding gummistosar / cuffs for my flue pipes.

Did you find a good solution?

Continuing in the thread another 8 years forward, I have the same problem myself and found this

Elda stores have rubber boots, I bought a 150 mm for Contura's smoke pipe myself.
The older Contura smoke pipes are 168 mm, for them there are rubber boots with a hose clamp. It must fit perfectly for you.
I bought mine at the Elda store in Karlstad. 145kr cheap I think.
