11500-11 Pam AM cranks

Hello! Our 39-017 is designed for Awning windows, yes, but it can still work on windows like yours, too. I think this is a good product to look at first. Carefully review our photos and dimensions to ensure that everything matches. If if differs in any way, let me know exactly how and we can try to find a closer match.

Thanks for getting back to us, Tina. Are you referring to our 39-257B Look-Rusco operator? If so, I don't think this is what you have. The top tab on this is the same as the bottom, but your bottom tab is definitely different compared to the top.

The 39-017 does not currently come in white, unfortunately. Was the the only difference, or was there something else about the design that differed?

I actually agree with your original assessment that the Pan Am 39-017 operator looks closer to the one you have in your window now. This has the same bottom attachment leg like the one in your photos. Just make sure that the link arm on the 39-017 matches the one on your operator, too. 

One more thought on the painting. I would wipe down the operator with a cleaner to remove any grease or dirt from the operator body. Then use a type of spray paint with a primer included in the spray. I believe Krylon or Rustoleum has this type. 

One more thing I would also order is the 39-104 handle in white. Reason being that the handle is the only part of the operator you touch and the 39-104 has a good finish on it. You want to avoid painting the handle if you can help it since it's going to be grabbed so much.
