Thank you for your post. Please take a look at our 26-431P tilt latch pair and let us know if this would be a good match for you. Also, we see that your glazing bead seems broken as well. We will be more than happy to assist you with identifying it, however, we would need a clear photo of its end.

26-431P looks like a match. I'm going to order some now. I would like to repair the glazing bead they are broken on several windows. I will get a good pic this weekend do you also need the lengths?

Sorry for the delayed reply.

Jeff, you'll need to know the length of the bead to place an order, but we don't need the length to identify the item. We just need to see a side view showing the curves of the bead.

Hi Id like to finally replace the bead. Easy to measure but I'm not sure what you mean by you need a side view showing the curves. Also is it easy to remove and replace?

It should remove with light pressure via a screwdriver or something similar, and it snaps in to install. Be careful not to snap it.

A side view would look like this:

Sorry for the confusion. We will need you to remove a sample and show us the end profile. To get an idea of the kind of shot we need, see our complete glazing bead selection here. Knowing the size of the end profile will also be a big help.
