Internal window latch

Question

From the attached photos can you help me identify the internal latch that I would need to replace the one that is broken. If we can find the right part I am interested in getting 10 of the latches

Thanks for posting. I am afraid that label doesn't tell us the tilt latch you might need. The best way to determine this is to remove both the tilt latch and the actuating lever for us to see. The video below details how to remove and replace internal tilt latches. If you can remove the actuating lever, giving us a picture of the prongs on its underside, and also telling us the length of those prongs as well as the distance between them, would be crucially helpful in identifying this.

Note however that it's very possible this internal tilt latch is no longer available, as a lot of this hardware is no longer made. I suggest that you consider converting your setup to surface-mount tilt latches such as our 26-228 & 26-229, or the 26-193 & 26-194. The video below shows how to do this.
