I have the same windows Polytex DH 3000. Need help finding the aluminum guide pin located in the bottom of the top windown.

The guide pin in question is what we call a pivot bar. We should be able to supply this, as we have a huge variety of pivot bars, but I will need you to remove this from the window and show me a photo of it by itself. If possible, I'd also like its dimensions, especially the hole placement (if applicable). Thanks!

A handy person from PA says:
Thanks for your prompt reply. I will try to remove the pivot bar from the other side, and send a photo this weekend.

Thanks for your help.

Photos won't seem to upload, is there a size limit ?

The tilt bar is 2-1/2 long with a hole at 1-3/8 from one end, 5/16 wide and 3/16 tall.

I believe it is your part number 26-083.

There is a size limit, yes. If the photos are too big then they could potentially be too much for our site to handle. Reducing the size of the photos may do it.

The 26-083 is a possibility, based on what you describe.

Yep, looks about right in terms of style. If your dimensions above are accurate than our 26-083 is our best option.
