A simple way to seal the rod tubes to the bulkhead is to unscrew them and use duct seal. Roll a "long log" like a very fat spaghetti noodle and lay it into the outer edge.
Reinstall the tubes and screws. Remove any excess duct seal around the outside.......think of the duct seal like setting a kitchen sink using plumbers putty.
Lowe's and Home Depot carry it. A 1 pound package will go a long way.

Hi, I know it's an old post... I just found it searching online, I'm having the issue with the water coming in the front hatch of a 2018 PA14 even with the new top lid seal that's included now.
I just ordered the side glued seal from ACK and hope this finally give me a fully sealed front hatch.
My question is, what glue do you use for this? or do I just place it without glue?

Thanks!

It is not the side glued, it is the "TOP GLUED" and it does not need glue. If you used the side glued, please let me know if it worked! Sorry for the delay.
