Window Clips

This clip is thin. I have a piece of metal 1/32 inch thick which appears to be the correct thickness. Your standard Miami Window clip seems to be the correct shape, with a 3/4 inch shank, just too thick.
These windows were installed in 1959. I could use 100 pieces.

Hello,

We don't carry the base but the clip itself looks similar to or 70-230 for older Miami windows. Take a look and see if you think that this might work as a replacement. Thanks for posting!

How thick is the material this 70-230 clip is made from? I have some others but they are too thick.. not from SWISCO.

The 70-230 screen clip measures 1/16" thick.

Unfortunately that is too thick for my windows. I need them to be more like 1/32 thick.

I'm sorry that we can't offer a closer replacement option but due to the age of the hardware, you may have a hard time finding a clip as thin as the original.
