The rub strip material attached to my cowling that goes around the air filter is starting to disintegrate. I couldn't find the Cessna part, but I did find this:

The Cessna part in the IPC looks to be a similar part number to the rub strip used on all the other engine baffling.
What are you all using when this material needs to be replaced?
Thanks,
Ryan

Re: Cowl Rub Strip Material
Thanks for the reply. I'm glad to see that's the solution. It will save me the cost of buying a 9-foot section of the other stuff!
