Hi there! We don't carry this exact shoe but you could consider either our 15-192 or 15-259 . Allow me to go over the differences. The 15-192 is a Certainteed brand pivot shoe and looks very similar to yours but you'll need to shave down the "nubs" on the face for it to fit into the track. Note that any product altered in this way cannot be returned for a refund. This shoe is also designed to use the Series 170 and Series 171 coil spring, 15-156 cover, and 15-157 bushing. Our 15-259 is a more modern pivot shoe and we believe this works better than the original. The video below will go over the entire replacement process in detail. You will also need to weigh your sash and divide the weight by the number of coils on both sides of the window to determine the correct coil strength option. |

Yes, you can re-use your old shoe if it's still in good shape. We also recommend replacing the springs on both sides of the window. If you only need the springs, you can use the Series 170 or Series 171 coil springs depending on the tongue on yours. If your coil spring has a short tongue, you can use (2) S170-263 3 pound springs on both sides of the window which would total 12 pounds of overall support; so long as the spring weights are within a pound of your sash's actual weight, this should be fine If your coil has a long tongue, you can use (1) S171-405 5 pound coil on both sides of the window which totals 10 pounds of overall support. Let me know if this makes sense or if you had any questions! |

I agree, I believe you indeed have the Series 170 with the short tongue. Best of luck with the repair and let me know if you need anything else! |
