Hello,

It looks like you need replacement pivot bars, which we may be able to provide but we'll need to see an intact pivot bar removed from the window to compare to our selection here. Thank you!

Thank you for the response. I am trying to get the further information to you as soon as possible, but I am a 73 year woman, retired, and am an waiting for help from my son to dismantle the window. Please keep me active. Thank you.

No rush. Just send over the photo whenever you're able and we can research replacement options for you.

Great. Take a look at our 26-083 pivot bar and see how our dimensions compare to yours. Thanks for posting!

I ordered the 26083 pivot bars and they are working. However, since the old pivot bars had rusted out, it was a very difficult repair job. So, things would be easier if you have the plastic form that holds the pivot bar. Attached is a picture of that form, measuring on the long end 2" and the other end 1".

I found a number 3/10559 on the plastic part I mentioned earlier.

You may have noticed when you ordered the 26-083 pivot bar that there is a related items section with a list of compatible hardware. The first two items are the left-haded 26-117 and right-handed 26-118 pivot housings. Take a look and see how they compare to yours. Thank you!
