the window would be at least 15 years old, since we have moved to this house for 14 years now. no record for window's brand, the outside part of pin is 0.49-0.55 in. the wideness of window screen frame is about 0.71 in. I have total of ten windows with different sizes.

most appreciatively.

Thank you for contacting us. Depending on the size you need, you'll want our 70-008 or 70-009 plunger pin latches.

dear Mike: thank you so very much for your responds, I found another info which is printed on those windows: IGMAC MELOCHE WINDSOR 93.

the screen sizes are: (heights x wides in cm)
91.5x48, 91.5x62.5, 76.5x77.5 ( two of them), 46x62.5, 76.5x47.7 (four of them)

thanks again

Hey, Diana. I'm afraid that information doesn't really tell us what screen pins you need. Did you see the two I recommended? I recommend carefully comparing our pictures and dimensions to yours to confirm if they will work.

hi, Mike, it's been awhile since my last email, compare to the one at home, it seems to me that my home plunger pin is just in between the part types I ordered as below.
thanks

Hey, Diana, good to hear from you again. When you say that your pin is in between the 70-008 and 70-219, can you be more specific? Are you referring to a certain dimension?

yes, it is the length of pin, and I already used #70008 parts, it seems working, thanks
