Balance identifier

Quick Learner from Culpeper VA
My part has "28E" engraved on the outside of the channel. I believe this is the 765 but your description says the top is a screw in type clip. Mine has an actual clip that is installed into a hole in the window frame.
I have several that I need to replace that have come detached from the window.

I also need to know how to replace them.
I have Plygem windows installed in my Ryan home.

Thank you.

Hello,

I can't be sure but it looks like you have balances similar to the S795 except that yours uses a hook like the 15-198 for installation instead of a screw tab. We can provide replacements with the hook attached but it'll need to be a custom order. Before we get started, we'll need you to remove the T-lock shoe that attaches to the balance from the window jamb to confirm if it matches the 15-195 that comes with our stock balances or one of the other variations related on this page. We'll also need to know the exact number of replacements that you need, with the minimum being two. Thank you!

I have attached a picture of the lower connector. I would need 5 of these.
What is the lead time on them and what would they cost? Can you just bill me and I can pay for them? I need to get them soon because we are moving and we need to sell our home.

Thank you for the help.

Thanks for getting back to us. Your T-lock shoe resembles the closed cam 15-195 but you'll need to remove it from the window jamb to confirm that it matches the 1-1/4" width shoe below. We also recommend purchasing 6 balances since replacing one side will cause an uneven amount of support. This could cause damage to the hardware or the window itself.

Also, please note that there would be a 5-6 week lead time for these balances since the 15-198 hook is currently out of stock. I understand that this could be a problem since you are trying to close on the house. If you would like to move forward with the order, we'll be happy to send over an order link and price quote once we confirm the quantity you'd like to purchase.

Thank you very much for the help. I got the piece out of the window and you are correct.

Please send me a quote for 10 of them then and I will just have some for the next owners when the windows malfunction again.

Thank you for all the help.
