channel balance variety pack

Question

I need some channel balances for my no-tilt windows.

What if the length of the item, from end of metal to end of metal does not measure out to a whole number, do I round up or down?

I have attached photos of all of the balances I need to replace.

The picture with 3 balances are all 31" in length, but in another picture, the end of one of them is different.

The balance with one end that is grey and the other white is about 21 3/8" in length.

The last balance is about 21 3/4" in length.

Looks like you have a few different balances. Some are standard, but some have to be custom made. You'll note that some of your balances have a pulley wheel inside the bottom shoe, notable in your second photo. These balances will need to be custom made, no standard balance can replace them.

For the balances that don't have wheels inside the shoe, I recommend that you look at our Channel Balance Home Page and follow the steps in order to find the Series that best matches what you have. You appear to have a couple different Series.

For the balances that do need to be custom made, I need a clear picture of the metal clip at the end of the cord and both nylon attachments at either end. I will also need to know their lengths, their corresponding stamps, and how many of each you need.
