Hello. I'm hoping to buy some replacement window tilt latches.
I don't know the window manufacturer, it was probably inexpensive.
Anyway, I included pictures that describe it. with the triangle tab out, it's slightly over 3 inches, the width is 3/4"

Please, would you suggest part numbers for a right and left of this latch?
thank you very much. John

Thanks for posting. Based on your photos and dimensions, they looks like our 26-243 and 26-244 top tilt latches. See what you think!

Hello Paul, The part number you suggested didn't work.
it is actually too thick. my window tilt latch is about a quarter inch thick, the one you suggested is almost a half inch thick.
Unfortunately I bought 20. So I hope to return and exchange them for a thinner one.

Paul, can you please try again? Same thing, just thinner? I would be grateful for your help.
thanks in advance. John

I'm shocked the 26-243 and 26-244 didn't work. Just eyeballing your pictures, yours appears to be the same thickness as ours at 3/8". I can even make it out in your third picture. The only tilt latch we have that's thinner is our 26-391 and 26-390, which are still thicker than 1/4" at 5/16". Did you try installing the 26-243 and 26-244 in your window? I do not think the 26-391 and 26-390 can work, and we do not have anything thinner.
