is there any option to purchase the compression springs themselves instead of the whole plunger latch assemblies? All of mine have deteriorated over time, but I don't have a need to replace every single plunger latch in the house. I'm looking at 70-009 or 70-136 Thanks.

I am afraid we do not sell the springs separately from the pin assemblies. I apologize for any inconvenience.

Is it the same spring though? If I buy 70-009 will the spring fit on a 70-136? Thanks.

Greetings! I went and checked the springs for the 70-009 and the 70-136 and they do appear to fit both screen pins. Furthermore, I believe the 70-136 and the 70-009 can be used for the same screen. The 70-136 however kind of "hide" themselves with the screen frame. Let us know if you have any further thoughts or questions.

All I wanted to know thanks. I will order hide ones that I am missing and replace the rest of my springs with the ones from the cheaper type. Thanks!
