Balancer for vertical sliding vinyl window

Contractor from Sacramento ca
Original from house installed in 2004. Part number says 25" long. If I use the measurement guide, it shows that the bottom flared part is 1" instead of 1-3/32". Please help

Thank you for reaching out to us. We're happy to help with this. We would just like to see an image of the inside of the balance’s metal channel, where the innerspring connects to the pulley mechanism; this connection is located in the middle of the channel. It looks like this balance is damaged so you will have to use an undamaged version as a reference.

Thanks for the additional photos! The depth of the bottom shoe is measured as shown below. The last photo in your initial discussion post looks to be over 1", which likely points to the S385-26 with the 2530 stamp option. Take a look at the specifications and let us know if you have any questions. 

Please note that the metal channel should measure 26" long.
