I just had another customer looking for this same pivot shoe earlier today. Your exact style isn't made anymore, but I've been told by those who tried that our 15-179 works well as a replacement. This is 15/16" wide and 9/16" deep, which matches up to yours. The big difference is the style of the cam. Ours is a little smaller than yours, so it won't be compatible with your existing pivot bar. This answers your second question, though this isn't common. Most pivot shoes can reuse their old pivot bars, but only if you're replacing it with an exact match. We're kind of fudging the rules here so we'll need a new pivot bar in this instance only. I recommend our 26-021. The spiral balance would be our S900-28 with a red tip. This uses a 75-006 charging tool. As for the tilt latch, it's hard to tell while it's still installed but it might be something like our 26-243 and 26-244. I recommend removing yours from the window to confirm that everything matches up. Finally, I'm not sure if our jamb spreaders can work for you. These can work for most vinyl windows, but you mention a kind of wood extension and now I'm not as confident as I was. If you think this will cause an issue, you're probably better off going with what we call the "cut out method." Refer to the video below for more details. |
