Paul, just a thought, the DREMEL company has a bench mounted
router table. They also have diamond
 point bits. Could the materiel be machined by placing
it on the table and passing it by the diamond point
bit to square it etc, Virg

Might be worth a try.

I can't imagine how you would do better than the Mazda racing apex seal, but if you must,why not track down the people that make the McMaster-Carr piece and have them extrude some Apex seal looking rectangular stock a bit oversized and have it ground to size on conventional equipment? Or, maybe they already do have stock close enough to the right size. Lynn E. Hanover

Are you referring to the carbon apex seal Lynn?
