Thanks for posting! Before I can offer an applicable replacement for this channel balance, I just need to know a bit more information about the bottom attachment. Please take a look at our 15-004 and 15-005 channel balance shoes, and note their depths. As you can see, they are 1-3/32" deep and 1" deep, respectively. Which one more closely matches your own bottom attachment?

Thanks for posting! It appears that you have something like our Series 385 channel balance. Does that look about right? Can you also confirm your metal channel length? I think yours may be 21", but I would like you to confirm.

I would also recommend the 2040 option. This can carry a window sash weight range of 15 through 23 pounds. Does your sash's weight fall within that range?

Please keep in mind that the weight range information is based on 2 balances per sash. Balances are designed assuming friction in the jamb weather-strip will carry a portion of the sash weight. Suggested sash weights are approximate.

Correct, it is 21".
I think I will buy a pair as suggested by the web page.
