Could you confirm the length of your metal channel? Based on your stamp, it should be 29" long, not 31".

To determine the option you will need for a 31" Series 751 balance, remove the window sash and place it on a scale.
This series 751 ribbed channel balance also known as a block and tackle balance has a 31" long metal ribbed channel and is for a tilt window. This balance comes fully assembled with a 15-014 shoe. The channel width measures 9/16" but is considered 1/2" in the trade.
