2.5" tilt latch

A quick learner from USA says:

I'm putting together an order for parts for some windows in a 1994 era townhouse; the 29" blue tip series 600 balances and the 17/32 pivots match up to what I have, but my tilt sash latches are 2.5" C to C, with 5/8 from the outer screw to the sash edges. Your 26-215 latch says 2.5" C to C, but 3/4" outer screw C to sash edge. OK choice? Don't know the window brand, it has an internal grid between the two panes.

Thanks for posting. You might do better with our 26-176 and 26-177. The hole center spacing is 2-7/16" but the hole to the end is 5/8". If you're still not sure, show us a couple pictures and we can work from there.
