Verifying correct replacement shoes, pins, and sash releases

Quick Learner from USA

Hi,

We have 4 tilt windows and most all the shoes need to be replaced. We would like to order replacement shoes, pins and sash releases but are not sure of the correct replacement parts and are hoping you can help.

Attached are pics of the shoes, pins and sash releases.

The shoes looks to be about 3/4 " wide and about 1-1/4" long.

If you would, please let us know what questions you have and we would be happy to get more information to you for the correct replacement part numbers that are needed.

Thank you.

Julie

Hello,

Your shoe was recently discontinued but we have received confirmation from other customers that the 15-177 will work as a replacement. This Picot shoe is used with the Series 152 coil springs and related items listed on our product pages. The pivot bar reminds me of the 26-030 but take a look at the dimensions below to confirm. 

As for your tilt latch actuator, I would recommend removing an undamaged one from one of your windows to compare to the specifications shown on the 26-119, 26-234, and 26-235 product pages. Take a look and thanks for posting!

Thank you for the information. I have another question for you on the coil springs based off an article I read on your website about the possibility that the coil spring may also need to be replaced. Can I use the existing housing for the coil spring or should this be replaced as well? The tilt windows were purchased from All Weather Seal in Michigan approximately 15 - 20 years ago.

You should be able to reuse the original coils and support parts as long as they are still in good condition. If you'd prefer to err on the side of caution, see the 15-143, 15-144, and 15-145
