Description

This factory spring provides the designed return force/tension in its assembly so parts move smoothly and stay in position. Replacing a fatigued or broken spring restores proper movement and feel to the affected mechanism. What it does:

• Applies and maintains tension/return force within the specified mechanism
• Helps levers, latches, doors, or linkages move and hold position as designed
• Can resolve loose, sluggish, or non-returning movement in the involved part
• Reduces squeaks/rattles caused by weak or broken spring tension

What's included:

• 1 spring

Install notes:

• Disconnect power and shut off water/gas before servicing
• Note the original spring's orientation and routing; take photos for reference
• If your model uses two matched springs for balance, replace them as a pair
• Avoid over-stretching; follow your product's service information for correct tension/placement
• Inspect related components (cables, hinges, brackets) and replace if worn
