We have a problem with the glazing in our Alcan Windows that are about 23 years old. Sunlight has caused the glazing to become brittle and break. I looked at your pictures, but I did not see any that looked like ours. Looking at it from the end, it looks like a what a large staple would look like. The wide part is 0.520

It's hard to tell without seeing a clear picture of the glazing's shape. I would start with our 55-180 and see if this is a match. Otherwise, I will need to see a small undamaged sample removed from the window so that I can make out the profile.

I have attached two addition items for you to scan.

Thank you, that's perfect. I'm not sure if we have an exact match, but check out our 55-092 and see if this could work as a replacement.
