Hello! This looks like a typical channel balance for a non tilt window. I feel confident that we can find a good match for you, but before I recommend anything I need to see a photo of the top plastic fitting. Your photos here only show the bottom. Would that be possible?

Hope the works.

Great, we're almost reach to make a recommendation. If you could show us the connecting point between the spring and pulley inside the metal channel, that would help us confirm if our stock balances could work for your repair or if they would need to be special ordered. Thank you!

I'm sorry for being unclear. What I need to see is the point where the spring connects to the pulley system. Please note that it's necessary to see this detail on an undamaged balance; if your balance is missing its spring or pulley, as appears to be the case here then it's not possible to garner the detail I require. Please let me know if that would be possible.

Thanks! That's exactly what we needed to see.

The good news is that you do not have the special Series 86 balance. This can be replaced by one of our stock products without issue.

I recommend the S385-34. This comes with a 19-005 top and 15-004 bottom nylon fitting, which is 1-3/32" deep. That appears to match the size of the original shoe, as per your first photo, but you may want to triple check just to be sure.
