Greetings,
I want to find out if you have the following snap-in glazing beads available. There are two glazing bead designs used in my window, one for the Horizontal dimension and a different design for the Vertical dimension. I am sending you separate emails for each bead design along with attached labeled-photos and measurements.
Please find photos herein of the VERTICAL snap-in glazing bead (plastic/vinyl/pvc) for my anodized aluminum frame single hung window with four thermopanes (insulated glass units). The thermopanes and the glazing beads are both located and installed from the interior side of the window frame/ sash facing the room.
I do not know the manufacturer of the window, but the date on the spacer inside the thermopane is 1981. The glass and existing glazing appears to be factory installed in the frame, so that makes this window system about 43 years old.
I will be replacing all four thermopanes and associated vertical glazing beads.
Assuming the beads are supplied in 72 inch sticks, I need 4 sticks of this glazing bead for my vertical application.
I am not picky about color, but prefer the original dark bronze color if there is a choice.
About the photos: There are five photos consisting of a profile photo with Measurements, 2 profile imprint photos, and 2 photos of the bead surface showing the front-side, and back-side that abuts the glass. Comparing the profiles may clear up any questions about how the bead is designed or configured.
Please let me know if you need more information.
Thank you,
Snap-in glazing bead for older aluminum frame window

Hello,
I don't recognize your glazing at first glance but it may help to see the window sash with the glazing holding the glass in place. Thank you.
