I'm not sure what you have, unfortunately. We have dozens of different balances with that stamp. It's not a product code or anything, it just indicates the strength of the spring.

In order to figure out what Series this is, I need you to remove an undamaged version of this balance from the window and show me clear pictures of the top and bottom nylon fittings. I can somewhat make out the bottom fitting in the image you provided, but a clearer image would be appreciated. 

The video below will go into more detail.

Dear Swisco Support,

I hope you're doing well. I am reaching out to request your assistance in identifying the exact replacement part for the channel balance in my Milgard non-tilt window. The stamped number on the channel balance reads "29 3 EW CMC 10."

I've attached pictures of the top part, bottom part, and the entire balance for your reference. In addition to the channel balance, please let me know if there are any additional take-out clips or parts that go on the side rail that should be replaced along with the balancer.

Thank you in advance for your help. Please let me know if you need any further details to assist with this request.

Best regards,

Thanks for your photos. Based on what I see here, you have either our S380-30 or S385-30, depending on the depth of the bottom shoe. That's the only difference between them. I recommend measuring your shoe and referring to our dimensions to confirm the best match.

As for other parts you my need, that's not really something I can answer. What you need to do is give your window a thorough once-over to see if anything else is damaged. If so, you can show me a photo and I can make a recommendation. Otherwise you're fine to reuse the existing parts if they're in good condition.

Comparison of the S378, S380 and S385 balance shoes.
