Looking for 2.5" long, 5/16" Wide Pivot Bar with Marking 1074

26-412roken window sash pivot bar? Unfortunately, I can't seem to find any markings indicating the brand of the windows.

I'm looking for a pivot bar that is 2.5" long with a 5/16" width. The front protruding part (I'm not sure what to call it) goes out 5/16" and there is a part 1074 marking on it. I originally searched on your site and subsequently purchased part # 26-412, which was very close however the holes were unthreaded (part # 26-412) whereas mine are threaded. I'm not sure of the exact screw thread but there is a 5 marking and it seems like it could logically be a number #5 thread.

Alternatively, if there is no part meeting those exact specifications, is it possible for me to use the part 26-412, perhaps with a nut or something similar to keep it in place?

Any help you could provide would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Graham

Thanks John -

That's good to know. The threads on the existing/broken pivot bar were a tad smaller. The screw fit directly through the hole and had a bit of wiggle room on each side. I can purchase new ones to fit part #26-412. Can you please tell me what size machine-screw I should purchase for #26-412?

Kind Regards,

Graham

Hi Paul -

Thank you so much and apologies for not responding sooner. I think I missed this last post and had already picked up the screws from my hardware store. The parts fit perfectly and my windows are finally opening and closing again! I really appreciate all of your help.

Best,
Graham

Broke the pivot bars on a window I picked up at Lowes 15 year ago. Found marking 1074 on the long part of the pivot bar. Based on this discussion I picked a few up. Installed in 5 minutes working perfect. Do yourself a favor and buy the recommended self tapping screws. The originals would not have worked. This will save yourself a trip to the store. These parts saved me a few hundred dollars.
