Need help with identifying right balance

Home Owner from Florida
Hi,

I need to replace the balances in my window. I believe it is Caldwell. It is 30 in long. The stamp says is 29-4. I'm not sure about the guides though. Can you help me identify the right part?

Thanks for your photos. Based on what I see here, you have either our S380-30 or S385-30, depending on the depth of the bottom shoe. That's the only difference between them. I recommend measuring your shoe and referring to our dimensions to confirm the best match.

Thank you! It's 1-1/32 so I will try S380

So, if your shoe is 1-1/32" deep, then it may have actually been the Series 385. It's common for the nylon shoe to wear down over time, depending on how frequently the window is used. Just something to keep in mind before you buy anything.
