WINDOW HARDWARE > COUNTER BALANCES > ROUND 3/8" CHANNEL BALANCE RED BUSHING
Counter Balances are located on the left and right sides (sometimes above) of the top and bottom sash.  These balances control the weight of the sash allowing you to open and close the sash with ease.  A simple ideal can prove to be complex.  Many times these items break or wear out and need replacement.

This Tubular Spiral Window Balance for tilt type windows will replace a 3/8 (9.5 millimeter) metal or plastic tube balance with a sash load capacity of up to 25 pounds (11.3 kilograms). It will also replace same size spiral balances with a white bushing. While this balance is packaged and sold individually, it is our recommendation that both balances in the window be replaced at the same time.
