ABSTRACT:
The seal comprises a first portion mounted to at least a part of the inner peripheral edge of the window opening. The first portion includes a flexible body, a first magnetic element received in the flexible body, and a flexible sealing member. A second portion is mounted to at least a part of the outer peripheral edge of the window in a position to face the first portion and to contact the flexible sealing member when the window is closed. The second portion includes a casing member, and a second magnetic element received in the casing member. Flocking is connected to at least one of the first and second portions. The flocking is positioned between the contacting area of said first and second portions when said window is closed. The flocking reduces friction between the first and second portions to facilitate sliding of the window. At least one of the first and second magnetic elements is a permanent magnet.
