Hello there. See the 26-444 Pivot Bar. It doesn't have the second horn yours has, but we don't believe that will affect window compatibility. See if it otherwise matches up.

The hole locations for the 26-444 are a slighty off from my original bar. Will this be an issue when trying to put he window sash back on? I was also looking at the 26-452 3in T pivot bar. I know it is longer but will having the horns on both sides help in any way?

The overall length of a pivot bar doesn't matter. What matters is the pin design and the hole spacing. As far as the hole pattern, you just need one hole to align with your old pivot bar for it to work--you only need one mounting hole to install it right. So if just one hole on the 26-444 aligns, it should work. As far as the 26-352, if one hole aligns it might work, but there's no benefit in our estimate to having one or two horns on the pin.

Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I purchased the 26-444 2-1/2" long pivot bars for three of my windows and they worked great! Thanks so much for your help!
