I purchased a 1980 house about a year ago with windows that haven't been well maintained. I was hoping y'all could help me identify the type of snap in glazing that I need to purchase for replacement!

We believe you may be able to use our 55-006 snap-in glazing bead as a replacement. Take a look over our measurements to match them up with yours. This is also available in the color gray.

Thank you Paul! After measuring it looks like those are indeed the correct parts. The next part I'm wondering about is how much material I need to order and which length is appropriate (3ft vs 6ft). How much extra length do you recommend ordering for the job? Looks like I have about 250 ft of glazing to replace. Also what is the best method to cut the vinyl? Thanks!

If you're looking to replace that much glazing, you may be better off by it by the 6ft piece. These glazing beads can be cut using heavy duty cutting shears.
