Screen Plunger Inquiry

Question

Looking at your 7/32 dia 70-0008 window screen plungers. To repair screens from Hurd Windows made about 1993.
large end 7/32 dia x 3/8 long
small end 1/8 dia x 1-7/16 overall length
spring .41 nominal or 3/8 plus
prefer aluminum
Qustions:
1. I assume these are suitable replacements.
2. Can I get white caps?
3. Because I live in a shoreline area and the originals have all corroded. Are they available in anodized. Or do you recommend any oil, grease or wax to help protect them.
4. Are the springs stainless steel?

I would be ordering about 16 sets or more (quick count off the top of my head.

Best Regards
Larry

Thanks for posting. Yes, based on your description the 70-008 7/32" plunger pins sound like a promising candidate. I am afraid we do not carry these with white caps. They are aluminum, so rust shouldn't be any issue. I am afraid I don't believe the springs are stainless steel. Let me know if you have any further questions.
