I'm in need of several tilt latches. I believe these are Owens Corning brand, about 30 years old.

I'm also in need of sealing strips for these windows as well.

Hello there!

Thanks for reaching out to us. We don't sell an exact match for this latch. Can you write out the distance between the two installation holes measured from center to center? Can you also write out the backset? That's measured from the center of the installation hole to the edge of the latch as shown below.

I can't promise we'll have a suitable replacement but those details should help us confirm.

Per my calipers, the center to edge distance is 21/32"
Allowing for edge burrs, I would round it down to 5/8 "

Thank you! Can you also write out the hole center spacing for this tilt latch?

Thank you very much! I'm sorry to say we don't sell a latch with your exact specifications. The 26-176 and 26-177 have a 5/8" backset but the installation hole center spacing is 2-7/16". We can't promise these will work for you but take a look at the rest of the specifications and see how they compare with yours.

If you're looking for weatherstripping, we will need you to remove an undamaged sample and show us a clear photo of the end profile. My apologies for missing that in your initial inquiry.
