Hello, thank you for posting,

With this combination of attachments, you could have either an S380 or S385 channel balance. You’ll need to measure as shown below. The Series 380 has a 1" bottom attachment, and the Series 385 has a 1-3/32" attachment. The length of the metal channel excluding the nylon attachments should measure 36" long, please compare. 

The stamp on the balance indicates that the weight of the sash is 37 pounds. We recommend weighing the sash to confirm. For a 37 pound sash weight, you can use a 3560 stamp option. 

Please review and let us know if you have any additional questions.
