Thanks for writing in! The rod you are searching for is the tie bar for the casement window locking system. We can likely supply the replacement but I'll need to know the length of the bar and the number of cone rollers on it.

Please let me know if you have any additional questions!

Thank you, Jasmine. I won't be able to measure it for a week or so. I'll send you the specs and number of cone rollers then.

Sorry for the rough drawing. The overall length of the bar is 47 inches. The diagram shows the theee rollers and the distance between them. Not sure if the number in the second pic helps at all.

Thanks for confirming this information. The best replacement option we have the 38-919 46.9" Tie Bar. You may need to adjust the tie bar guide for the installation but you'll need to determine that one you have the tie bar.

Please let me know if you have any additional questions.

Thank you for confirming this. I will need a couple of the tie bar guides as well but I know where to look now.

I'm happy to help! I know you said you know where to look but I've tagged a few of the guides we sell below this thread. Given the placement of your installation hole spacing, I believe you'll need the 39-448 but be sure to review and compare their dimensions.

Please don't hesitate to reach out with any other questions you might have!
