S600-25 25" Series 600 Spiral Tilt Window Balance

Without Swisco's Web site I wouldn't be able to figure out visually how to repair and replace parts for my windows. I cannot thank you enough for the videos and pictures showing what to do.

I want to buy 4 black bushing 25" spiral balances where's the price and info?

Does it really matter whether I use series 600 or series 900 balances? The 900 series looks stronger in the picture. I understand the 900 series has a smaller diameter but does that matter? I am going to order blue bushings. Thanx

i would like to replace these with new balancers. The ones I have in the windows broke not long after the windows were installed. My question is, I have the spiral balance with the red tip. Would it be to my advantage to go for the heavy duty green tips.

No Question, Just wanted to take a minute to say thank you for having the balance tubes and the charging tool! We have lived in our house for 8 years and the windows never stayed open unless propped open. I just replaced 12 balances and the windows work great!

You will have to charge the balances, I usually give the spiral three to four turns to start. I then take precaution by trying the window sash to see if it will operate properly. Then I adjust it accordingly, adding more turns as needed.
