Channel Balance Caldwell

A quick learner from Kansas City, MO says:
I am pretty sure I need the 33 inch series 385 channel balance. The only other one that I am considering is the 33 inch series 380 channel balance. Do you think I'm on the right track? I see that the only difference between the two is the depth of the shoe, and I think the one I have is the longer one. I appreciate any help/insight, thanks!

Hi there!

I agree! With this combination of attachments, you could have either an S380-33 or S385-33 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 to remove and weigh your sash to choose the appropriate spring strength option. There's a chart on the S380 and S385's product pages that will show you which option you'll need based on the weight of your sash. 

If you have any further questions just let us know!
