window channel balance

A quick learner from south carolina says:
I'm not sure if this channel is 26 or 27 inches? The metal channel measures 27 inches. It's stamped 26-5. I do not see any letter to determine the weight of the window ether!
Thank you
Frank

Hello!

This looks like a match for our Series 795 channel balance with the 15-195B open cam shoe (sold separately). Compare our dimensions to yours to confirm that this matches up to your original shoe. Just be sure to triple check the metal channel length to ensure it is indeed 27". 

Your stamp "26-5" doesn't match any of our standard options so you'll need to weigh your sash on a scale to choose the appropriate stamp option. There's a chart on the S795's store page that will tell you which option you'll need based on the weight of your sash. 

Let me know if you have any questions!
