Re: EST#4418 Arnold/Weather Shield Balance Assembly

Question

Hi Swisco,
I was hoping these were right but I am not sure... There aren't any dims on the website besides the length which is right and the ribbed metal channel's width is 9/16", but is considered 1/2" in the trade......
The balancer we need to replace is a 28TG it also has a PM stamped in it.
The ones we received are a 28TG with a AH stamped in it. These are quite a bit bulkier than the PM.
The depth is 7/16" vs 5/8"
Width on new one 9/16" old one is 1/2"
Any suggestions? Let me know.
Thank You! :)

Thanks for posting! The shoe looks like our 15-233 Blue Knife Lock Shoe, which is not the same as the shoe that comes by default with our Series 751 (the 15-014). We'd be happy to build balances for you that use this other shoe; however, I think it's best to also show me the balance you procured and your old one side-by-side, from a cross-section view. I want to make sure they're the same size or not, and both ribbed balances or not (see here for a comparison between ribbed and plain balances). From there I'll do my best to further narrow this down.
