These are the "sliders" used to lock and unlock the sash when you tilt the window out to clean it. On the top sash, they are visible, but on the lower sash, they are hidden under a panel which is screwed on for "looks", but they appear to be the same. They are 4.5" long from end to end and 3/4" in width. The "finger tab" which fits into the top so you can get a grip on the slider is about 1/8" tall and 3/16" wide.

So do you have these and how much are they?

Hello,

Based on your measurements, it looks like our 26-211 tilt latches might work for you. Let us know if you have any other questions or concerns. Thank you.

I do apologize for this matter. However, this is the only size the manufacturer offers. We can suggest changing over to top mounted tilt latches like both our 26-228 and 26-229. Look over the media guides on this page for further information.
