window channel balance for non tilt window 2530 CD B.S.I.

Home Owner from Jackson, CA

Channel width 1/2 inch, Length 26 inches,

Top attachment winged 15/16" x 11/16" x 1/2",

Bottom shoe attachment winged 15/16" x 1" x 1/2"

Hi. I think I need a S380-26 option 2530. The only difference is the top winged attachment has a groove in it (photo 4).

What do you think?

Thank You,

Paul

Hi Paul. Thanks for coming with such thorough information. I agree, this looks like an S380-26. Don't worry about the slight difference in the appearance of the shoe; these vary slightly depending on the manufacturer or era they were made, but the overall shape is the same. 

The only other possibility would be the S385-26. The sole difference between these two balances is the 'depth' of the bottom nylon shoe. For the Series 380, this dimension is 1"; for the Series 385, the shoe depth is 1-3/32". If your shoe's depth is 1", then the S380-26 is the right way to go. You are also correct that you will need a stamp option of 2530. Let us know if you need anything else.
