Alum window tilt latch

To Whom it concerns,

DO you offer tilt latches for aluminum windows? Photo attached.

Looks like 26-314 will work. 2 last questions before I order a bunch:
-is the triangular piece that goes in and out on the end spring loaded?
-will the triangular piece that goes in and out work with the existing round plastic tube inside the window track that the window moves up and down in. The original triangular piece has a curve in it that goes around the round tube. Photo attached.

Would appreciate your reply.

I agree, the 26-314 appears to be our best match. The thing is, manufacturers are always changing the style of their hardware to accommodate other balances systems besides the the tube type you have now. I checked out the triangle tip of the 26-314 latch and it is long and narrow, so I think it could fit besides your balance tube. However without physically being there and installing it, I cannot say for sure.
