Identify correct balance and color

Question

I have 2 spiral window balancers that have no color tips. They are 17" long and 5/8 in width.

If the outer tubes are indeed 5/8" in diameter and 17" long, then you need S600-17 balances. To know what color tip you need, weigh your window sash. You can then match that exact weight with one of the weight ranges listed alongside each color tip option on the product page.
