21" Series 600 Spiral Tilt Window Balance pivot bar

Home Owner from La Grange Park, IL
Hi, the photo IMG 5832 is of the bottom of the window part that connects the Spiral balance. This photo is of a pivot bar on a working window. The window in which I need replacements of that bottom connection is rusted out. It seems to be approximately 3" long. Do you know which pivot bar I would order from your site?

The left photo is of the spiral which upon measuring appears to be the 21" Series 600 Spiral Tilt Window Balance.

Thanks, Gary

Hello,

I'd recommend starting by looking over the 26-063 pivot bar. The determining factor would be how the dimensions compare to yours. We'll include the specifications form our product page to yours. Thanks for posting!

I had a handyman help and we were able to get the pivots off. They are approx. 2 3/4" long.
I have attached photos which I hope help figure out the correct pivot bars and screws.

Thanks,

Gary

It looks like you are showing different pivot pars than the one shown in your original post with elongated installation holes. This part resembles the 26-357. Take a look and confirm the measurements match your part.

That looks correct. Thanks. Does I come with screws, as those rusted out too.

Unforutnately, most of our pivot bars do not come with screws since the replacements depend on the screws used for the original installation. If there is one intact screw that you could remove from another window, I would recommend bringing it to a local hardware store so they can match you up with replacements.

Just let us know if you have any other questions.

Hi, I had shown you pivot bars taken from a window downstairs. It turns out those windows are a bit different than the window we are working on. We took off a pivot bar from the window right next to the window in question.

I have attached photos of the pivot bar that would fit the window in question.
The pivot bar is 3'' long and 1/4" wide. If you could let me know which pivot bar I should order, I would appreciate it.

Thanks,

Gary

Your pivot bar resembles the 26-068 but note that they measure 5/16" wide as shown below.
