These are pieces of a plastic window glaze beads that need replacement but no one in my area can identify them let alone stock them. Please let me know whether there is a appropriate part that can be used. I think the part I have pictured may be somewhat deformed due to heat and weather over the years.

In terms of style, your glazing bead looks very similar to our 55-080. Look over our dimensions and let me know if you think it will work.

Hi Tom,

Thanks for responding. I checked the dimensions that 55-080 and I'm not sure it would fit. The dimensions on the piece that I have is roughly 1/2" in x and y. I'm adding a highlighted image with the dimensions that I could measure out along the edges. Please note the 3/8" distance from one edge to the hook protrusion.

Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

Thank you! That's a huge help. Since yours is 1/2" x 1/2", how about our 55-029? This has a similar style and matches your measurements, though the space from the lock protrusion isn't the same. I don't think we'll have a better match, going by your size. If you want, you can order a sample of it here to try out.
