The coil has the sequence (#6.5 35" P) on it. We are guessing it's a 6.5 lbs Serie 160 Coil Balance and 3/4" coil single support. I need to replace the whole housing and want to be sure I have the right measurements.

Attached are pictures of the coil balance for my window. These pictures are from my window that weighs 23lbs. I also have another window that weighs 18lbs. and has the same problem where the coils have broken. The coils have broken on both sides of the windows. The plastic cover and the shoe are in ...

I am working on a couple of Simonton windows with coil balances. one is a single coil stamped 5 and the other is a dual coil with the lower coil stamped 4 and the upper coil stamped 6.5. Which coil balances should I use?Thanks, Robert

Coil spring is broke or came loose. Any help..

I believe the parts I need are as follows (see photos): 1/2" coil balance, S160-06, 6.5# 1/2" coil single support, 15-150S 1/2" pivot shoe, 15-111 I intend to replace both sides.

This is a heavy window, the coils disconnected from the shoe.
