Double Bass String identification - help needed

hi
hope someone can help me. I purchased a set of strings for a 3/4 size EUB (scale length is 1051mm / 41.34inches). The D string is damaged, causing a buzz, and needs replacing. The strings are Red Label but I am not sure which part number I need. The retailer I bought them from does not sell individual strings and cannot give me any information. The Super Sensitive web site does not show gauge sizes. I emailed them - no response.

I have measured the strings with calipers and they are:
E - 2.8mm 0.110"
A - 2.2mm 0.086"
D - 1.7mm 0.067"
G - 1.3mm 0.051"

Looking at the Super Sensitive web site I think I need part number 8137 but not sure. Can anyone help me out ?

Thanks very much - Paul.
