Pivot bar

A quick learner from Illinois says:
We have some pivot bars that have snapped off and need replaced. There are numbers on the ones that haven't snapped, either an 8 or a 1. The drilled hole is threaded. The whole bar is 7cm

Don't mind the extra length. That part of the pin will be concealed inside the sash frame. The key dimension is the distance from the first screw-hole (the active one) to the tip that engages the pivot shoe. Check if that's the same.

Being that the part is zinc, which is softer than steel, the holes are not tapped. You will need a self-tapping screw for that purpose.
