Spiral Sash Support Balances for Non-tilt Windows

Home Owner from Baraboo, Wisconsin
I am trying to replace the spiral sash support balances for some old windows and I am unsure which series and brackets to select. I know they are 5/8", but the old ones don't have any identifying markings. I have included pictures of the end pieces that seem to be the main differences between the series, and would appreciate any guidance on which to select.
Thank you.

The tube of my current spiral balance measures 26 3/4" or 68cm. How do I select whether to get the shorter or longer balance? My windows weigh about 10lbs each.

Hello! I am very sorry for the long wait; we appreciate your patience during an incredibly busy season.

I'd recommend the 27" S500 with the red tip option for sashes weighing 7 to 29 pounds. The compatible bracket is the 17-012. If you need the charging tool, see the 75-005.

Please let us know if you have any questions.
