The part is for a replacement of one that broke. Works just fine. it was a nine inch balance. The problem I had with it, is that it took 2 months to get it after I ordered it. I realize it was only 9 inches and had to be made, but two months?? Our update and explanation to the above: Mr. Martin was told that it was a special order and would take awhile. He was also informed that he could cancelled the order and would be given a full refund which he denied each time he called. The coil spring in the balance was special made for him only. We feel we went far exceeded our helping him to receive his part. Nick Mariano
