S/H non tilt window balance

Home Owner from Buckeye, Arizona
Both balance are stamped with the following. 86 26-4 GC5 CMC 45. It seems like I am missing the release clips that clip into slots on both sides of the window frame, please let me know if you carry these clips and the part numbers.

Hi there!

Thank you for reaching out to us. We can help with this. It will just have to be a custom order due to the 86 stamp. That tells me that your balance has a special calibration that isn't matched by any of our standard parts. Can you measure the bottom shoe as shown below and tell us what you get? 

As for the take out clip, take a look at the 16-002 and see what you think.

I looked at the other balance in the same window and it does not have any markings. Do you want me to weigh the operable window that moves up and down?

I took apart the other window that is the same size and works perfect. Here is what I discovered..

The balances are different from the one I showed beforer.They are 86 27-4 GM5 CMC 87 I need two of these balances.There are two nylon clips or guides that screw into the bottom frame. I need two of these as well. Sorry for any inconvience this may have caused.

Kind regards,

Mike

Thank you! I'll go ahead and email you a purchase link for (2) of the 26-4 balances and (2) of the 27-4 balances that you can use to place an order on our website. Note that the shoe for the replacements is 1.088" deep which is the closest we can offer. The 16-002 take out clips can't be included in the link so don't forget to add the desired quantity to your cart separately. 

I'm unsure of the clips/guides you're referring to. Can you show us a photo of one removed from the window?

Thank you kindly! I'm sorry to say that we don't sell a good match for this part. I believe it's a type of face guide, but it does not appear to be a style that we carry. I am very sorry for the inconvenience.

Good evening Emily. The balances I ordered are the 1/2" width type, correct?
Thank you,
Mike

Yes, the width of the metal channel measures 9/16" but is considered 1/2" in the trade.
