I have a Kent Tile Fire circa 1986. The door takes 2 gaskets--one for the glass and one for the metal frame glass retainer. Can anyone tell me what size gasket I need for the retainer? The manual doesn't tell you and the gasket currently on the frame is so old and worn that I can't tell what the original size might have been. Thanks in advance.
 
I just bought a 1986 Kent Tile Fire. It's in another location. I'll look it over in the next day or 2 and see.
 
Outer Gasket = 9 1/2" X 13 5/8" rectangle. 3/8 " wide.
Inner Gasket = 9" X 12 3/4" rectangle. 3/8 " wide.
Both are flat. I'd just get 96" of flat 3/8" gasket and cut to length. Apply with hi temp adhesive/gasket cement. Furnance cement may work but mine says metal to metal or metal to masonry.
