WINDOW BALANCES AND HARDWARE

A home owner from TRABUCO CANYON says:
I ORDERED THIS TYPE OF BALANCE PREVIOUSLY.... I BELIEVE.

S350-22 22" Series 350 Channel Balance option: 2130

HOWEVER I BELIEVE THE NUMBER STAMPED ON THE BALANCE THE BALANCE REFERS TO THE LENGTH.

I AM NOT SURE IF THE HARDWARE PICTURED IS THE:
18-008 5/8" Top Sash Guide

IT SHOULD MATCH THE BALANCES THAT I NEED TO ORDER.

THANK YOU

Thanks for posting. The number on the balance isn't indicative of any exact physical aspect. A stamp of 2130 indicates a length of 22" long, so assuming your balance had the same 19-002 top and 15-004 bottom as our S350-22 then I think this was a good choice.

However, the balances in your pictures are different. These look like they have a 19-005 top and 15-004 bottom, which is closer to our Series 385 channel balance. You also have a stamp of 27 3, which corresponds to a 28" long balance with a 2730 option, and a 33 3 stamp, which corresponds to a 34" long balance with a 3330 option. I hope that makes sense, I know it can be a little confusing.

As for the top sash guide, see our 18-171 instead.
