I believe these are 18-166's, could you please confirm or suggest another part number?

Just a hair smaller than 13/16th. I have about .80" from my caliper in reference to the 18-044.

My original order was for 18-044's, they were too big.

Thanks for reaching out. I recommend taking a look at our part 18-201. Carefully compare the measurements to your top sash guide. See if you think this may be a better fit.

Attached is an intact sash with ruler for measurement interpretation. See that one image is measuring the total length and another is measuring the length minus the cap.

I am unable to confirm the measurements based on the photos presented with the ruler.

Were you able to review the measurements from the diagrams to confirm if they were close? If they differ in any way, you'll need to give written examples of the differences.

The measurements won't be exact because we do not have an exact match that we can offer.

Compared to the overall length dimension for 18-201, mine measures 1-3/8" instead of the listed 1-1/4". Otherwise, all other measurements are the same.

Thanks for confirming. Given that all of the other measurements are the same, especially the installation hole placement. I do understand there is a difference of 1/8" in the length of the part but you shouldn't have issues with the installation.

This is the best replacement recommendation we carry for the top sash guide you have.
