Thanks for writing in! We do not have an exact replacement for the pivot bars you have pictured here, but our 26-444 or 26-454 may be worth considering as a replacement. Look over the dimensions from each pivot bar and compare them to your existing bar to determine if either of these might be a fit. Keep in mind, these have a single horn on the top of the bar and all of the installation holes may not match. However, if at least one of the hole measurements match, the replacement should work fine. Let me know if you have any questions. Alternate view of 26-444
Dimensions for 26-454

Hi Jasmine thanks for the email and trying to find a part that will work.
as you mentioned the T is not true in both those cases and the holes don't match up either.
i think the best solution would be to purchase a "T" stile and drill new holes in the window to accommodate the screws.
i think the T is more important that the holes. do you agree?
if so can you propose a "T" style one that will work for me?
thanks so much,Riccardo

All of the T-Shaped pivot bars are much longer than the one you currently have. Also, the horn is not an important factor in the installation. You can take a look at parts 26-272 and 26-378 but they are 3" in length and the installation holes will not match what you need for those either, unfortunately. Our best replacement recommendation would be the 26-444 or the 26-454, maybe even possibly the 26-021. You will also need to consider that it is very likely that you may need to drill new holes for the installation, for any of the pivot bars mentioned. In that case, we do advise exercising caution when drilling any holes so that you do not damage the frame of the window or potentially crack the glass. You will need to make the determination on which would be the best possible replacement for your application. Take a look and see what you think. |
