Hi,I have 20 year old simonton vinyl windows.I have a broken spring(they call balancer)on the bottom sash.Sash is only 34 inches wide by 17.5 inches high.It is the stainless coil type,sitting on a white plastic barrel,in a white "L"shaped bracket.In the pics,the two coils are the one broken spring.

Hello there!

I'm confident we can help with this but I will need a little more information so that I can ID a match. Can you show me some photos of your pivot shoe? That will allow me to identify the compatible springs and housing.

Hi,it looks like all I need is the coil spring,as it snapped in half.I searched on your site,and found that it is the certanteed style,(narrow housing)that the coil fits into.
The original is stamped 406 J.I cant tell though if I need the short tongue or the long tongue.
The series numbers for the coils are S170 and S171,but all I have is the "406" stamp,and the letter "J" under it.

Thanks for confirming. It looks like you only have one spring per side so you would need the S170-406 6-pound coil spring per your 406 stamp. I also recommend watching the video below which will explain in more detail.
