When you're measuring the balance, you want to make sure you ONLY measure the metal channel. Do not include the top or bottom fittings.
According to your stamp, your balance should be 27" long, not 28". For the company that made your balance, it's normal for the metal channel to be 1" longer than the first two digits of the stamp.
