I'm not sure what you have, unfortunately. We have dozens of different balances with that stamp. It's not a product code or anything, it just indicates the strength of the spring.

In order to figure out what Series this is, I need you to remove an undamaged version of this balance from the window and show me clear pictures of the top and bottom nylon fittings. I will also need to know the dimensions of these fittings.

Hi Tom, thank you for your response, please see pictures with nylon fittings.
Will these help with identifying the balance?
Thank you.

Yes, these are perfect, thanks!

Based on what I see here, you have either our S380-21 or S385-21, depending on the depth of the bottom shoe. That's the only difference between them. I recommend measuring your shoe and referring to our dimensions to confirm the best match.
