Description

This tension spring restores proper tension for the appliance component it supports, helping parts return to the correct position and operate smoothly. Replace a worn or stretched spring to reduce slack and improve mechanism movement. What it does:

• Provides tension to a hinge, latch or return mechanism so moving parts return to rest position
• Helps maintain correct alignment and smooth operation of the related assembly
• Can reduce noise and prevent loose or sagging components caused by a weak spring
• Common symptom: part does not return, hangs, or feels loose when operated

What's included:

• One tension spring

Install notes:

• Wear safety gloves and eye protection; springs can store tension and release suddenly
• Disconnect power and follow appliance-specific service instructions before servicing
• Inspect mating components (hooks, anchors, retainers) and replace if damaged
