Window hinge replacement

Home Owner from Seattle Washington
I believe this comes from a Milgard casement window.  The base (part number 90486) is 13 inches long.  The shorter arm (the bent one - part number 31861). Is about 6.5 inches long.

Hello,

We'd be happy to look into this for you, but your hinge is too damaged to identify. If you could show us an intact hinge from the top or another window, that would help us narrow down your options. Thank you!

Here are some photos of the mechanism installed on a working window. One hinge at the bottom and one at the top. Thanks.

Your intact hinge reminds me of the 36-048 as long as the 10" base matches yours. With that being said, I'm not sure where the 4th arm shown in your photos of the damaged hinge attaches to the sash.

We also offer 4-bar hinges like the 36-021, but the setup appears different from yours. Review the specifications below to determine if one of these could work for your repair.

Hi:
The base of my hinge is 13". Would the 10" hinges work?  It should be easy to install.  Thanks.

If you decide to go with the 2-bar hinges for your window, we also offer the 36-049 with a 14" long base. The 10" or 14" balances could work as long as you replace the top and bottom at the same time but the range the window will open may be effected.
