The floating weather-strip includes a sealing member and a support member having a spline for interfitting attachment to a jambliner to prevent the infiltration of air or water in the check-rail area between window sashes in a window assembly during sliding or tilting. The sealing member can include a foam material, and can be disposed on an upper and a lower surface of the support member. The removable attachment of the weather-strip to the jambliner facilitates replacement after installation, as well as customization of the compression characteristics to achieve specific biasing and sealing needs.
