- The metal channel is 24" long and 9/16" wide, though it's considered 1/2" wide in the trade.
- Comes fully assembled with a top screw clip and bottom 15-195 T-Lock Balance Shoe with a Closed Cam. All other shoe styles are sold separately.
- Used by International and other manufacturers.
- All window balances are sold individually, not in pairs
- Can work for either the left or right side of the window interchangeably.
- Spring strength is denoted by the stamp option printed on the metal channel. If you do not have a stamp option, weigh the sash on a scale and refer to the chart below.
