Pivot bars broken on my AK in 550 double hung windows

Once again, I have broken the pivot bars on my AK in 550 double hung windows. As my local distributor has gone out of business, I should probably get several of these to have on hand as I seem to break at least one every year when cleaning the windows. Would you have a replacement item?

Thanks for contacting us. This looks a lot like our 26-241. I recommend going over our dimensions just to be sure that everything matches up. I have a good feeling that they will.

No, that is too long. Here are measurements including the width and hole distances.

Ah, I see. We don't have anything in those exact dimensions, but you only need one hole placement to match for a replacement to work. I'm just not sure which hole your pivot bar uses. Two possibilities come to mind: our 26-433 and 26-443. The 26-433 has a hole that's 1-1/2" from the tip, on center, while the 26-443 has a hole that's 1-1/4" from the tip, on center. These positions match two of those you show in your photo. Let me know what you think.
