PivotTrue® G3 balance shoes interlock the sash to the frame with a full face metal-on-metal connection — the only system on the market built that way — which raises structural load performance and helps the window reach higher DP ratings.

The drop-in sash design removes the need to rack in the sash, and the interlock holds the sash to the frame so it cannot fall out during shipping and installation. The brake engages with as little as 15° of tilt-in and customizes itself to the profile in use.
