Casement Window - Tie Bar?

Hi:

I have a large casement window with no tie bar attached to the locking mechanism. There are only 3 points on the window that latch into the bar, but the bar that is missing has 4 round nubs on it. (Photos from another matching window) I am attaching photos. The bar is 46 5/8" long. The round nubs on the bar (measured from the top) are centered at 3 7/8" : 24 1/4" : 40 3/8" : 46".

I am submitting an order right now for a bunch of tie bar guides and a few crank handles. If I can get this bar added to that order that would be great. If not, we can figure out another solution.

Thank you for your help.

Scot

Hello, Scot. We sell only two tie bars that may work for you: our 38-968 and 38-919. Both of these measure 46.9", though, which is the closest possible size we have to yours. They also each have a different configuration of rollers in a different style. Look them over to see if either would be a good fit for your window.
