I need a replacement block and tackle for a tilt window. The rod is 27 inches long, 1/2" deep, and 1/2" wide, straight, and has "27G BSI" markings on it. I have attached pictures to help you identify the part. I also need the tilt window latch. I tried to take a picture of the part where the window is attached at the bottom of the rod too to make sure it fits. I need you to help me identify the parts I need please. I need to replace these for several windows.

Hello!

Thank you for reaching out to us. We may be able to help with this. However, we'll need more information to narrow down what you may have. Can you show us the shoe or attachment that engages with the pivot bar?

Sorry,
What is the pivot bar? Is that the part that attaches to the window?

Yes, that's correct. It would be installed at the bottom of the window sash. Seeing the corresponding shoe will help narrow down some options.

I already sent a picture of the part that I can see. In order to take see the shoe completely, I would have to remove the window. Is that correct.

Thanks for getting back to us. It appears you have the S795-27 but with the 15-198 hook which means this must be a custom order. This balance comes attached with the 15-195 closed-cam shoe but I don't know if this is what you have. To confirm, we would need to see it removed from the window which would require removing the window sash.

In the meantime. can you tell me the number of balances you're looking to order?
