Do you carry these window latches?

Home Owner from Columbus, Ohio
The latch catch and replacement insulation strip for the Simonton casement window (I included picture of description tag as well)?
Thank you.

We'd like to see a couple of photos of this part from an end profile. Could you do that for us? From there, we can update you with more information.

Yes. I'm attaching photos of the latch catch. Just a reminder that I also requested weather or not you also carry the insulation/weather strip for the Simonton windows (I sent pics and window model info previously).

Thank you.

Is there anything missing from that "latch catch" you described? It looks incomplete. As well, what is the function of this piece, and does it interact with any other window parts? If it touches or interacts with other parts, can you send us photos of them?

As for the weatherseal, we would need to see the weatherseal from a profile view, like the photos below. Give us a quick update and we will identify your parts!

The pics I sent were of a whole catch as well as the broken one I want to replace. It is the piece that the latch grabs hold of to completely close the crank out window.

I sent the window description tag as I don't have a loose piece of the insulation/weather seal and I don't want to tear any out unless I have replacement.

Thank you.

Thank you for getting back to us. Unfortunately, we have not been able to find this latch. I've honestly never seen anything like it and nothing in our inventory comes close. I am sorry we cannot provide a replacement.

I also cannot identify your weatherstripping while it's still installed. At this point I think you should look through our selection of weatherstripping here. This section of our catalog shows all the weatherstripping types we carry.

After searching your site a bit more, I believe I've located the exact part, 38-131. You call it a keeper. I will order this and a weather seal, 58-183, to see if it works. Glad the inquiries get posted, otherwise I may not have found it. Thanks.

I believe your part 38-131, you refer to it as a keeper on the site, may be an exact match. I will also try 58-183 weather seal.

Thank you for your assistance. I'll let you know how they work out.
