Looking to replace some old 1960 plastic window pins.

The pin is 1-3/8" long and 1/8 in diameter. My concern is the screen frame holes are all 11/64 in diameter. Both inside and outside frame

hole. Is their a replacement pin that you can reccomend.

thanks

Hello, Jim. The hole towards the screen wire should only be 1/8" in diameter for the 70-009 pull pins to lock in. If not, you might have to drill a new hole with our 75-032 step down drill bit, either above or below original hole to install 70-009 pull pins.
