Thanks for writing. This looks like a Series 770 Channel Balance. However, this will likely need to be specially made due to the extra-strong spring strength and the weight of your window sash. Could you confirm for us the length of the metal channel? In the time being my colleagues and I will look this over and get back to you if we need any more information. Many thanks. |

Thanks for your patience during this busy season, Frederick. In general we never recommend trying to repair individual balances; this can actually be dangerous when it comes to the spring mechanism, as it is under a lot of tension. But in general, these balances are built as a singular component, and when they break its time to replace them wholesale. The good news is that we've added the stamp option of 29G for the S770-29 online. It will take 6 weeks for these to be made up, but you can sign up to be notified the moment its available through the S770-29 product page. Let me know if you have any other questions. |

I feel pretty confident that our S770-29 is the right balance for you, yes. The only thing you may want to double check is how it installs at the top of the window frame; ours uses a screw, but if yours uses some other method then let me know. |
