Caldwell sash balance

A home owner from Alameda, CA says:
I am looking for a replacement for a sash balance. This is coming out of a single hung vinyl window manufactured around 1995. The metal portion is 26" long. Please let me know if you need any other information.

Hello,

With this combination of attachments, you could have either an S380-26 or S385-26 channel balance. You’ll need to measure as shown below. The Series 380 has a 1" bottom attachment, and the Series 385 has a 1-3/32" attachment. You'll also need 2530 spring strength options for your replacement balances.

Thank you and let us know if you have any other questions or concerns.
