Thanks for posting. See the 55-080 Glazing Bead. Review our dimensions to verify if this matches what you have.

I suspect the 55-080 will be our closest match. If you want, we may be able to supply you a small sample to try. Let me know if you'd be interested and I can look into this for you.

Hi Swisco,

So i been trying to use my most recent order (55-080) for my windows and it seems to be too thick to use on the windows. Is there any other options?

Hey there! Your glazing does seem to be a lighter gauge than the 55-080. Regardless, I'm not sure why it still wouldn't work on your window sash. What I found is that sometimes when using the 55-080 glazing the back leg is too long and won't allow it to snap into the frame. If that is the case you might want to try and use a set of Wiss cutters or heavy duty scissors to trim down the back leg on the glazing. If you attempt this, note that modified items cannot be returned for refunds. Let us know what you think!
