Coil balanace

I know I need to replace both right and left balances (because the coil broke) but the only visible info is the 6L, which I know means 6 lbs. Are there other things to be measured or does this work S161-06

I ask because this product doesn't specify left or right and I don't know if it matters.

Thanks for posting! Your pivot shoe resembles our 15-087 coil housing pivot. This is compatible with the Series 180 coil balance springs. You'll need the S180-6 coil springs for your window.

These can be used for both the left and right side of the window.
