Noticed the top window end cap is also broken looks like the retainer at the top of the window track is also broken

Top sash guide is 1 inch wide x 9/16 at top. Body is 1/2 inch wide length is approximately 1 5/8 held in place with two screws

Hello,

With this combination of attachments, you could have either an S380-29 or S385-29 channel balance. You 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 a 2860 spring strength option for your replacement balances based on your 28F stamp.

Comparison of the S378, S380 and S385 balance shoes.

As for your top sash guide, take a look at our 18-180 and make sure that the dimensions on our product page match up to your original to confirm that this is the correct replacement. Thank you!

Hi thank you for your help. The bottom shoe depth is only 7/8 will the s380 work ?

Nice catch! If your shoe measures exactly 7/8", that would need to be a custom made balance with our 15-029 attachment. I'll get a quote and custom order link together for you and send it over in a separate email. Please let us know if you need anything else.
