Plastic wedge that holds screens against framing

I own a 20-year old house with builder-grade sliding windows. Many screens are missing these pieces, which makes them useless against stopping insects. What are they called, and how do I order them?

We don't have an exact replacement for this clip, but see if the 70-176 Slip-On Clip could work as a replacement. Take a look and see what you think.

It is unclear to me how those clips function. Do you have a photo or diagram of them in place on a screen in a frame?

Unfortunately, we don't have a diagram but the screen frame slips into the clip, which then braces it against the lip of the window frame.
