Good the thread I need..
I would like to understand the slider window assembly also.
So here goes:
1.) The
first layer of pieces installed, is the fixed glass with U rubber around the glass (W1807) to seal outside. <I was thinking it should have silicone RTV along the outside and clamped till dry?
I hope that
the solid piece (W1142) takes up the other half of the opening on the sliding side and seals to the outside <should it get silicone RTV along the outside?
2.)
Then second layer installed against the first. The slider felt U-shape. with the push/pull glass piece <I'm still trying to understand how the
felt U-shape(W1207) is held in place "screws" / "adhesive"?.
I have the
metal stop-clips in the middle of the opening they're stiking up into the opening.
The pull clips used to push/pull the sliding windows is part of the stainless steel vertical bar glued to the moving piece of glass. mine has the Whiskers piece on the outside of that moving glass.
3.)
The third layer window retainer strips/bars (shown behind the metal stop clip) that screw into the window frame. they're about 3/8" x 3/8" L shaped piece the length of the opening, these hold the interior garnish molding frame on, at the bottom. Is that it, does the interior molding garnish hold the two layers, as it sandwiches?
Comments please, I'm trying to figure this out too...
