I believe you can use our 15-192 pivot shoe, Series 170 bottom and Series 171 top coil springs, 15-156 cover, and 15-157 drum. The video below will show you how all these parts work together.

A handy person from Potomac, MD says:
I ordered the 15-192 pivot shoes as that was the only broken parts I have. I pieced it back together for the photos but the shoe is broken in half. Does 15-192 come with the cam or will my existing cam work?

Tom from SWISCO responded:

The 15-192 does come with a cam, yes; you can see it in its product photos on our site. However, you still may need to reuse your cam anyway. There are some Simonton pivot bars that have trouble working in our part. It's easy enough to switch them out, so it's not a big deal, but just make sure that you don't throw out your old ones.

A handy person from Potomac, MD says:
Following up, I had to trim the 15-192 down to about 7/8" to get them to fit in the channel. I am missing the cams for some of my windows and you're right that my pivot bars don't fit in these new cams. See attached picture. Can you recommend a pivot bar that will work with my windows and these 15-192 cams?

Tom from SWISCO responded:

There is no pivot bar that will fit in both your window and the 15-192 cam, unfortunately. If you are missing some of your cams, then your only other option is to grind down the lip on the front tip of the original pivot bar to get it to fit.
