Abstract
A water-drainable gasket for use between a panel and a frame includes a continuous channel-shaped body having a pair of spaced sidewalls and a bottom wall. A plurality of pairs of transversely spaced water draining holes extend through the bottom, each pair of the holes being transversely aligned with each other. The pairs of the holes are spaced at an interval along the length of the continuous gasket. The holes in each pair are located adjacent to or extend partly through the sidewalls. Further, the holes extend perpendicularly to the bottom or at an angle to each other and to the sidewalls.
