Abstract
A weatherstrip having a backing member and a pair of rows of pile of different height above said backing strip. A flexible fin is disposed between said rows and has a height equal or slightly greater than the height of the higher row. When sash members, such as those of a horizontal sliding window move into closing relationship, the fin bends causing bending of the higher row forming a seal between the sash members while the row of lower height is not substantially compressed and provides a springlike force opposing the mechanism which holds the sliding sash.
