Tilt window pivot lock shoe replacement

Landlord from Springfield, Ohio
The spring assembly has the number 3 on the back of the plastic housing. The pivot shoe did not have any markings. There were no markings or labels found on the windows. The ruler in the pictures of the removed part show the dimensions.

Thanks for writing in! We do not have an exact replacement match for the shoe you have here but we've recommended our 15-228 Pivot Shoe to replace it in the past. To confirm that this will be a fit, carefully look over the dimensions below and compare them.

This shoe is compatible with either the 1/2" wide Series 160 Coil Balance or the 3/8" wide Series 165 Coil Balance spring. To determine the series needed to complete your assemblies, you'll need to confirm the width of your coil. 

Once you've confirmed the series, you'll need to confirm the stamps from your existing coils. If there aren't any, you'll need to obtain the exact weight of the sash and divide that by the total number of coils in the window.

The coil balance is 1/2 inch and is marked with an 8. Does this provide the detail needed to identify the best part number to order?

Since it is 1/2", you'll need the Series 160, as mentioned above. We do not have an 8lb coil, so you can likely use the S160-07 Coil Balance.

To replace the cover you can use the 15-150S.
