Thank you,

Thanks for posting, Vince. Before I can confirm what Series channel balance you have, I'll have to figure out what bottom shoe that is. I can see from the picture that it looks to be just about 1-1/8", but it's hard to make out from that angle. I'd like you to confirm.
Please look at the measurements for our 15-001 and 15-002 bottom shoes and note their depths. As you can see, they are 1-1/8" deep and 1" deep, respectively. Which measurement more closely resembles your own shoe? Once you tell us, we will be able to determine what Series your balance is.

It could also be 15-003, yes, but I'm not sure if the shape matches. What is the exact measurement of your shoe's depth?

Comparing the measurements shown on your picture of the 15-001 bottom shoe and my part, they are slightly different.
Where your picture shows 1" in height, mine is 1-1/16"
The picture shows 1-1/8 in depth, my part is 1-3/16".
My part is 1/2" wide- same as yours.
I should also note, my home was built in 1993, so the windows are at least that old.

I still think it resembles the 15-001 more than the 15-003, based on it's style. Is it possible that it is simply a bit worn down? the 15-003 is well under 1" in height, as well, while the 15-001 is actually a bit closer to 1-1/16" than 1", now that I measure it myself. Let me know if you agree.
If you do agree, take a look at the S395-22 with the stamp option 2140.
