Need help identifying a Milgard Channel Balance.

Question

I have included several pictures of this part. It is a 1/2" wide channel balance. Number set is 26 4 EV CMC 7. The trouble I am having is identifying the particular shoe and top clips. There aren't any particular marking on them that I can tell. Please let me know if you need additional information. Thank you! - Damon

Hey, thanks for posting. I've narrowed this down to two possible channel balance Series: either our Series 380 or our Series 385.

Now, as you can see, the only difference between these two Series is their bottom shoe. The Series 380 uses the 15-005 while the Series 385 uses the 15-004. I can't quite tell what you have based on your pictures, though. Please carefully compare their dimensions to your own hardware and see which is a better match.
