Balance spring and shoe
Thanks for reaching out to us. This balance assembly is a little different from the parts we sell, but I'd be happy to look into it for you. before we move forward, can you tell me the width and thickness of the pivot shoe? Can you also tell me what number is printed on the coil spring?
Perfect, thank you! Please give us a little more time to look into this and I'll get back to you ASAP.
Hey there, maybe I can help. I think of all the parts in our inventory, our S161-04 might be your best option. This is a four pound assembly, so two of them together carry 7 through 8.99 pounds.
The only thing I'm wary about is whether your old pivot bar will be compatible. Figure that the S161-04 is designed to work with our 26-405, so if yours is the same then it should work well. If not, you can show me and I can judge whether you need to swap it out or not.
Thanks! Please give me a little time to look into this and I'll get back to you ASAP!
Thanks for your patience. After a bit of experimenting, we have confirmed that your old pivot bar should be fully compatible with our S161-04 balance assembly.
The Series 161 is most commonly used with the 16-031 mounting bracket, but this isn't exclusive. You should check the original before you buy anything just to make sure that they're the same.
