Simonton window coil attachment

Handy Person from OH
One of the coil attachments (photo 1) in my 2006 vintage Simonton window has cracked and released the coil.  I need to replace the mechanism.  The second photo is the window code sticker found at the top of the window.

Thanks for posting. I'm sure we can help, but I'm afraid that label doesn't tell us what you need. Please remove the system from the window and show us pictures of the pivot shoe further down the track that the coils connect to. The identity of the pivot shoe will narrow down what coils you might need. I'd also like to know the width of the coil tape--it will either be 3/8" or 1/2". That should be enough to get started. See the videos on this page for further instruction.

There are 3 coils, 3/8", ink stamped #4.0 35" P.  The coil support bottom cracked as did the bottom coil at the rectangular cut out.

That's perfect, thanks. The pivot shoe is the 15-199. For the 3/8" coil springs stamped '4', see the S165-4 4 pound springs. For new coil supports, see the 15-206 triple support. Let me know if you have further questions.
