[Rhodes22-list] Teflon Strips

[salm at mn.rr.com]

I think I've seen these too although at the time I thought they were nylon.
But they came in sheets and had adhesive 
backing on one side.  The stuff I saw was about 1/16" thick.  I'd like to
use it in my rudder assembly to reduce the 
slop in the rudder which is esspecially bothersome going downwind.

Peter,

How thick were those strips?  They sell Teflon strips in marine trailer 
catalogs to slide boats on and off trailers without rollers, but those 
strips may be thicker than what you have in mind.
