The shoe cam is broken stamped on the channel itself is 27 bbsi it looks like you have a product but it has a different screw clip
Can I use the 27 from the 795series and the 15-195B 1 1/4 shoe cam.

We can absolutely supply this balance, but it will have to be a custom order since the 15-198 isn't a stock option for this Series.

Before we go any further, can you just tell me how many you needed? Can you also verify the stamp? You can ignore where it says "BSI," I'm only concerned with the first three digits: in your case, I believe it's 27B, but I want to be sure.

Once I know that, I'll email you a purchase link and price quote that you can use to place an order on our site.

Yes the stamp says 27B I think I need 2 of those. Unfortunately I think all the cam shoes for 18 windows are going bad they're disintegrating.
I think those are 15-195B.

Thanks for clarifying. If the shoe on those other windows is the only thing that's broken, then you should be okay just replacing that for now. It's very easy to replace these shoes, they just snap on and off.

Note that the 15-195B has a hole in the back; that's what qualifies it as an "open cam" shoe. Refer to the image below to see what I mean.

In the meantime, I'll email you a purchase link and price quote for 2 balances made to the given specifications. Let me know if you wanted to make any changes to that and I would be happy to do so!
