Hello,

The old-style crossbow balance shown in your photos is no longer available but you can follow the conversion video below to use our S795 balances as long as your spring has a diameter of 1/2". Take a look and thanks for posting!

Thanks Casey,
I have given you all my measurement except for the diameter of the spring.The springs on my balances are 3/8"diameter.I made an order for the replace balance but they came with the 1/2" diameter springs.They can't fit inside the window channel.
Please recommend the correct Balance with the 3/8" spring

I'm sorry to hear that the balances that you purchased didn't work for you. We can provide replacements with a 3/8" diameter spring, but it will need to be a custom order. Just let us know how many you would like to order, with the minimum order being two. I also see that you choose a strength option for a window sash between 6 and 11 lbs. Please confirm that your sash falls within this weight range.

In the meantime, you can find our return policy for the S795 balances that you purchased here. Thank you.

Thanks Casey for your reply.
I would like to try 2 of the balances that you recommend. The weight for the sash is correct because I weighed myself on a scale then took the sash and weigh again and subtracted the difference from my weight. Please also note that the opening side track on the window is 5/8" where the balance enters the window frame .Please send quote for 2 balances ,I'll try them and if they work I will purchase another dozen more.

Casey from SWISCO responded:

I'm sorry for the confusion but could you provide us with the exact weight of the sash? Since the custom balances have a different weight system than the S795 balances that you purchased, we'll need to make sure that the new balances are calibrated correctly to support your window.

Hello and Good Day Casey,
The weight of the window sash is 7 lbs.

Thanks Casey,
I have received the invoice and have paid for 2 of the balances.They are going to take a long time for them to arrive (40 days).As soon as I receive them I will install and see how they fit and reorder the remainder and spares.

Happy New Year to you Casey, I have finally got a chance to install the window balancers you recommended. They fit so I will like to order 12 more.
Thanks in advance.
