Tilt window latch replacements

Hello, I am trying to locate replacement tilt window latches for my Windows. The top plate is 2 5/8" long, the top plate is 5/8" wide, the bottom side is 1/2" wide, and is 3/8" deep. The problem I have found is that most replacements are not flat on the sides and therefore won't slide into the window frame. The only markings these pieces have is either an L or an R. Thanks.

Hello,
It looks like our closest replacement options for your tilt latches would be the 26-243 and 26-244 but you mentioned that the sides needed to be completely flat. Please note that there is a ridge on the side of ours and I can't be sure if this will be a problem for your installation. Take a look and review the specifications shown on our product pages to see what you think. If you decide to give them a try and run into any problems, our return policy can be found here. Thanks for posting!

The measurement for the top is 11/16" , but would you be able to find out the measurement for the bottom of the piece that would be in the window frame?

The width of the bottom portion that slides into the sash is 5/8". If you decide to give our latches a try and run into any problems, you are welcome to look through our return policy here.
