Specifications

25-42 Series for 7' High Doors

This spring is part of SSC's 25-42 Series, designed for compatible 7-foot-high sectional garage doors.

Correct replacement should be based on the complete spring specification, including:

• Door height

• Spring series

• Required pull rating

• End configuration

• Existing spring setup

• Door counterbalance requirements

130 lb Pull Rating

This spring provides a 130 lb pull rating.

Using the correct spring rating is essential for proper door balance. An incorrectly rated extension spring can result in:

• A door that feels excessively heavy

• A door that rises unexpectedly

• Uneven lifting

• Incorrect cable tension

• Excessive opener strain

• Premature pulley and hardware wear

Always confirm the required spring rating before installation.

Yellow Color Code

The Yellow identification color corresponds to the 130 lb rating in the standard extension-spring color-code system.

Color coding is useful for identifying an existing spring, but color alone should never determine the replacement.

Confirm:

• 7' door application

• 25-42 Series

• 130 lb pull rating

• Yellow identification

• Open-loop configuration

Single Open-Loop Ends

This version uses single open-loop ends for attachment to compatible garage door extension-spring hardware.

Clips are not included with this version.

SSC also manufactures double-loop and clipped-end configurations, so compare your existing spring attachment style carefully before ordering.

How Extension Springs Work

Extension springs are normally installed alongside the horizontal tracks on both sides of a sectional garage door.

As the door closes, the springs extend and store mechanical energy. As the door opens, that stored energy helps lift and counterbalance the weight of the door.

A correctly matched extension-spring system helps provide:

• Smooth door movement

• Proper counterbalance

• Reduced garage door opener strain

• Correct cable tension

• Easier manual operation

Compatibility & Fitment

Extension springs are not universal.

This spring should be selected when your garage door system specifically requires:

• 7' high garage door

• 25-42 Series

• 130 lb pull rating

• Yellow color code

• Single open-loop ends

Also inspect the existing:

• Lift cables

• Pulleys

• Safety cables

• Spring attachment points

• Track hardware

• Rear supports and fasteners

Replace worn or damaged hardware before returning the door to service.

Replace Extension Springs in Pairs

For garage doors using two extension springs, replacing both springs as a matching pair is generally recommended.

Both springs normally experience approximately the same number of operating cycles. If one spring breaks or becomes weak, the opposite spring may already be fatigued.

Using one new spring with one worn spring can cause:

• Uneven lifting force

• Unequal cable tension

• Crooked door travel

• Poor door balance

• Increased hardware wear

Safety Cables Strongly Recommended

Extension-spring systems should use properly installed safety containment cables running through each spring.

If a spring breaks, the safety cable helps contain it and reduces the risk of the spring becoming a dangerous projectile.

Inspect existing safety cables whenever replacing extension springs.

Safety Warning

⚠️ Garage door extension springs operate under substantial tension and can cause severe injury, death, or property damage if improperly handled.

Never remove an extension spring, pulley, lift cable, or attachment point while the spring is stretched.

Secure the garage door and fully release spring tension before servicing the extension-spring system.

Installation should be performed by a qualified person familiar with garage door extension springs, safety containment cables, and proper installation procedures.
