Can I just reuse the old terminal clip because yours is different?

Please also provide pricing for:
6- 36"
6- 37"
Or
12- 36"
12- 37"

Thanks
Dan

Thanks for posting, Dan. I'm not sure what Series it is you're looking at, but the balance in your picture will have to be custom made. Before we can get started or send you a quote, can you confirm that both the 36" long balance and 37" long balance are identical, aside from length? Can you also tell me what number is stamped on each balance?

The Series 770 channel balance is identical to the one pictured with the exception of the length of the pulley assembly at the bottom and the terminal clip. The 36" and 37" lengths are the same in design. I don't have the balance in hand to check for a stamped number. When you say 'custom make', would you just be changing the terminal clip on your existing 770 series balances?

More or less, yes. We wouldn't be using the Series 770 balance but something closer to what you have now. We won't be able to do this until we know what numbers are printed on the balances. If we cannot get those numbers, we would otherwise need to know the weight of the sashes that these balances support. This is to let us calculate the proper strength of the spring, which is very important.

C3650 for the 37" long balance. If this makes sense to you I'll get the number for the 36" one. You should be able to provide a cost at this point for 6 or 12 each of the two different lengths.

Great, thanks. I'll email you a custom order link and price quote for both 6 and 12 of these balances. You should receive it shortly.
