Hello! I'm trying to replace a broken pivot bar. Thing is, I can't get it out! I've take a picture of the intact one on the other side. When we remove the screws the pivot bar is still wedged into the frame. How can we get out the bar so we can determine which replacement to buy? Thank you!

Many thanks for your correspondence. Sorry to hear about your difficulties getting this pivot bar out! From your photos, it looks like you have a welded frame with a bottom cap held on by the screws. Remove the four screws and carefully knock off the bottom cap from the window sash. You might be able to it pry off. Again, be careful, as you may have difficulty getting everything back together if the frame separates from the glazing and glass. As far as your pivot bar goes, this might be the 26-416, but you'll need to confirm this one you extract your original version. Let us know how you make out.
