bent glazing bead

A contractor from Minnesota says:

I am looking for some help it appears that the Glazing bead I have on the windows we are replacing is either 55-164 which as bent at a 90 degree and 55-192 which is bent at a 45 degree and the 45 degree is exactly how are old one is however ours appears to be 1/16 longer on the long end and 1/16 longer on the short end which shouldn't matter. but I need the 7 foot length for one slider will the 90 degree bend in to the slider. Other than the degree bend what are the difference between the two.

Thanks Dan

Paul from SWISCO responded:
Hello Dan. Even though I do agree that your glazing bead looks similar to our 55-192, I would recommend our 55-164 glazing bead as the better option. It may lock better in your frame even though the size is a little smaller. You may want to take a look at both and see which one would make the better match for you.
