UPVC window packers

[DIYspanner]

I'm looking for packers for when I fit replacement glazing units.

There's a 4mm deep, 22mm wide recess in the window frame and I've looked on ebay but can't find any suitable packers. I need to pack the recess for the packers to sit on otherwise the window units won't sit properly. Looks like I'll have to get some 4mm packers and trim them down to fit in the recess where the packers will sit.

I took one of the old units out to see what packers were needed and the photo shows one of the existing which wasn't in straight.

If you Google upvc window packers or upvc window packers 20mm you'll find tons of variations. Maybe a combo pack like this would do?

That's why I couldn't see any. I was looking for 22mm.

Thanks for the lead. I can get 4mm to pack the recess and sit another packer in top to pack the glazing.
