Does anyone know what these are called and where I can get replacements?

Hi All,

Sorry to bother you. I have a Everest secondary glazing and, I think these are called wedges, that keep the sliding pains snug are breaking. Does anyone know if they are called that and where I can get replacements? Drawing a blank online....

Have you tried contacting Everest?

Good luck with that Everest went into Administration last year and got bought out by the directors ( now called Everest 2020 ),I will be very surprised if they have any information on old installations and , on top of that, normally the likes of Anglian and Everest won't sell you individual parts, they'd rather sell you a new window

Thanks Ronnie! I suspected as much. Was hoping maybe someone may have some old spares or know where to get something that can do the same job...

Meaning this semi-seriously, find someone with a 3D printer and replicate that way?

Interesting idea...there may be one at work. I don't know anything about them but in the absence of something else....

If no joy at work, a company like this can maybe help? Although I'd shop around as cost might be prohibitive.
