I am looking for the attached product (picture is of broken one): Milgard Essence Window Screen Pin/Plunger.

The part number might be IM6816CL. The length is 1.25"

If you don't have this exact part, perhaps a substitute part that would also work with existing screens. One company actually suggested replacing all screens, but that is costly and extreme, as the screens are in great condition. I just need a pin. And if we find an acceptable solution, then I'll probably need to buy a number of these in case of future breaks. Thank you!

We do not sell this exact part, unfortunately. I would say that the best match we have available is our 70-195, but I am not sure if it matches up in terms of size. The length is 1-1/8" compared to your 1-1/4", and it has a 1/8" diameter. Look it over and see what you think.
