2 sets of balances

Question

I have 2 sets of channel balances that I need to replace.

One is a 16" without the attachments and 153000H stamped on the metal. It looks like it had 2 wings on the bottom shoe but one is broken off.

The second is a 28" without the attachments and 274000H stamped on the metal. It does not look like it has the wings on the shoe.

Hello,

The balance assembly shown in your photos resembles the S350-16. Your stamp code indicates that you would need 1530 strength options for your replacements. Review the specifications to confirm that they match up to yours.

If you believe that the longer balance is undamaged and does not have wings on the top or bottom, see the S351-28 or S390-28. Take a look at the image below to determine which balance you'll need. You'll also need 27400 spring strength options for your replacement balances. Thank you! Thank you!
