milgard balancer

Home Owner from Washington
the lower finished window measures 27 x14. the balance bar is marked 25 2 and measures 25 5/8 and is 15/16 wide. it has wings at both ends but one of our ends is broken.

also the Milgard sticker on the window says series 5220/5231/5270. Is there enough information to determine replace parts from this? the window is challenging to remove so we're hoping this is enough.

Thanks for reaching out to us. We can help with this but I'm afraid we'll need more information. I believe what you have here is an extended travel type balance. The pulley wheel is built into the bottom fitting itself and this balance features an extended cord travel as well as a metal channel length ending of 25-5/8". It isn't a stock part in our catalog so this must be a custom order.

For me to get this moving for you, can you show us close up photos of the top and bottom fittings from the side and front? We will also need to see a photo of the metal clip attached at the end of the pulley cord.

Here are some more images. Unfortunately the top of the balancer had broken off, but the others in the window resembled image 2968, but in image 2966 our balancer has "wings" unlike the photo I took from the internet.
Length from metal top to bottom of plastic is 26 5/16"
On image 2964, the width of the plactic piece with wings i 1 2-3/16" maximum dimension (outside to outside plastic)
The metal bar is 25 5/8 inches.
