Thanks for posting. This looks like an S380-24 or S385-24. Just confirm that the metal channel, not including the nylon fittings at either end, is indeed 24" long. The only difference between these two balances is the 'depth' of the bottom nylon shoe, so compare both with your old hardware to see what matches best. You will need a stamp option of 2330.

Thank you. So between the S380 or the S385, can either one be fine to use for my purpose? Again, thank you.

No. The difference between the Series 380 and Series 385 is the 'depth' of the bottom nylon shoe. This can be thought of as the 'heel-to-toe' measurement, directly and perpendicular to where the metal channel ends. For the Series 380, this depth is 1". For the Series 385, the depth is 1-3/32". This slight different does affect window compatibility, so be sure to get the right measurement to determine which Series you need. Many thanks.
