Nylon Window Sash Cam Replacements for Channel Balances – Black or White, 2-Pack & 10-Pack

Nylon Window Sash Cam Replacements for Channel Balances

Restore proper window operation with these nylon window sash cam replacements, designed for hung windows that use channel balance systems.

Sash cams are small but important window components located near the upper side edges of the moving sash. They help engage the channel balance top guide so the balance can move correctly as the window is raised or lowered.

Available in Black or White and in convenient 2-unit or 10-unit packages, these replacement sash cams are suitable for individual repairs, multiple-window projects, maintenance work and contractor use.

Designed for Hung Windows with Channel Balances

These sash cams are intended for use with hung windows that operate with channel balances.

The cam mounts near the top side of the moving window sash and interacts with the channel balance system during normal window movement.

When a sash cam becomes worn, cracked, broken or missing, the window may not engage the channel balance correctly. Replacing the damaged cam can help restore proper interaction between the sash and balance system.

Durable Nylon Construction

Each sash cam is manufactured from durable nylon designed for everyday window operation.

The nylon construction provides a lightweight replacement component while offering the strength needed for repeated interaction with the channel balance system.

Choose between:

Black – Ideal for dark window frames or matching existing black components.

White – Ideal for white or light-colored window frames and traditional window hardware.

Available in 2-Pack or 10-Pack

Select the quantity that best matches your project.

2 Units
A convenient option for repairing a single window, since many installations use two sash cams per window.

10 Units
A practical choice for multiple-window repairs, maintenance inventory, property managers, window professionals and contractors.

Both package options contain the same sash cam design.

How Does a Sash Cam Work?

A sash cam is mounted near the upper side edge of the moving window sash.

As the window moves, the sash cam engages the top guide of the channel balance. This helps the balance system operate with the moving sash and contributes to smoother window movement.

Because sash cams are directly involved in this interaction, a damaged or missing cam can affect how the window operates.

Where Can These Sash Cams Be Used?

These replacement sash cams are designed for applications such as:

• Single-hung windows
• Double-hung windows
• Windows using channel balances
• Residential window repairs
• Apartment and rental property maintenance
• Window restoration projects
• Replacement of broken or missing sash cams

Before ordering, compare the shape and dimensions of your existing sash cam with the product images and specifications.

Product Dimensions

Based on the profile shown:

Overall Length: approximately 1-11/32"
Overall Height: 7/8"
Overall Width / Depth: approximately 5/8"
Top Section: approximately 1/2"

Because sash cam designs can vary between window systems, always compare the profile, mounting-hole placement and dimensions with the original component before installation.

Dual Mounting Design

The two-hole mounting configuration provides secure attachment to the sash and allows compatibility with common sash-balance installation designs.

The wide top flange helps position the cam within the window frame channel, while the center shelf and lower profile help support proper interaction with the sash balance system.

Easy Replacement for Window Repairs

Replacing a worn sash cam is a practical way to service an existing window without replacing the complete window assembly.

Remove the damaged or worn component, compare the replacement for correct orientation and fit, and secure it in the appropriate position on the sash using suitable fasteners for your existing window system.
