What can I buy to replace my 26 3 channel balance?

Hello,

There is a good chance that we carry the channel balances you need, but we will need to see a picture of the entire balance, including both top and bottom attachments, to recommend a replacement for you. Unfortunately, the stamp number only tells us the amount of tension the spring requires to keep your sash raised but does not tell us which replacement you need. Thank you!

Great, we're almost there! Now we'll just need to see a picture of the attachment at the opposite end of the metal channel. 

Perfect! These pictures tell me you could have either an S380-27 or S385-27 channel balance. You need to measure as shown below. The Series 380 has a 1" bottom attachment, and the Series 385 has a 1-3/32" attachment. You'll also need 2630 spring strength options for your replacement balances based on the stamp on your existing channels. 

Thank you and let us know if you have any other questions or concerns.
