Hello, I am trying to identify some gray bead for replacement. I think it may be the "Croft" but not sure. I am including pictures of it on the window and off. Thank you, Scott

Thanks for writing in. Consider our 55-151. This is also manufactured by Croft. See if the dimensions below match what you need.

Thank you Bob. I saw the 55-151 on your website before I sent my original post. That is why I mentioned the "croft". I think that is the only beading on your site that is made by croft. I was trying to get a confirmation that it matched what I have. I have tried to measure it and am still not sure. Will another type of beading work if I replace all of it to make it match?
Or, does it have to be the same snap in beading that is on the window now? Thank you, Scott

Thanks for the reply. Typically we recommend sticking with what you have. While there's some wiggle room with certain types of glazing beads, yours is a very particular shape, so I'm hesitant to say anything else will work. Either way, the 55-151 appears to the best match. Ultimately it will come down to dimensions.
