Coil Balance Shoe, Pivot Bar Fail

Question

I have 3 balances that have failed. I'm trying to identify the replacement parts to order. See attached photo.

The pivot bar is 2.5" long. Screw hole is 1.25" from business end.

The metal cam has failed. I'm assuming I'll need to replace the whole shoe. If I can get away with a cheaper solution please tell me and I'll get you measurements on the cam.

Shoe measures 9/16 (deep) x 1 1/4 (wide) x 1 3/8 (tall)

Thanks in advance. If I can describe my parts better please ask.

Yes, you should be able to get away with just replacing the shoe, rather than the whole balance system. See our 15-175 for a possible replacement. As for the pivot bar, I think our 26-226 would be a good place to start.
