Spiral Balance & Pivot Lock Shoe
Trying to replace a set of spiral balances & the pivot lock shoes. The tube measures 3/8" thickness x 28-3/4" long. Do I order 28" or 29" balance? Also, I don't see the pivot lock shoe on your website. It is 3/8" thick, 1-15/16" overall & 31/32" wide. Has a Red cam.
