These are off of MW Dual windows. They are pounded in the dash, put a comparable screw in would work as well.

Thanks for sharing your photos with us, Brandon. We want to see if we can help with some replacement options, but we need some more information from you first. Could you please provide the width of the base that attaches to the wood sash, as well as the length of the tip that comes out from the base? We'd also like to see the pivot shoe that the tip fits into.

Here are the photos and measurements you requested. The tip length is 1/2" long by 1/4" wide. The sash pin appears to be 1" long by 5/8 base that gets nailed into the side of the sash. I would prefer something that gets screwed in.

We feel our 17-056 tilt pivot might work for your window. The base is 13/32" wide by 1-7/16" tall and the pin itself sticks out 5/8", if you include the base, or 1/2" without the base. Finally, the rectangular shape of the pin is 1/4" by 3/16" high.

See if it will fit in the pivot shoe. You would use a screw and a small nail in the pin to secure it to the sash.

We appreciate the additional information and photos. We think our 17-056 tilt pivot may fit your windows. The base measures 13/32" wide by 1-7/16" tall. The pin sticks out 5/8" if you include the base or 1/2" from base. The rectangle shape of the pin is 1/4" by 3/16" high. Take a look to see if these measurements would work to have fit in your pivot shoe. You would use a screw and a small nail in the pin to secure it to the sash.
