One of the aspects that probably contributed to the triples failure is that they are a lot heavier with 3 panes of glass and I suspect that the mechanisms are the same as the 2 paned mechanics and not beefed up for the extra weight.Some earlier replacement windows were aluminum but today most are vinyl.
