SSC .2187 x 2.00" ID x 26" Torsion Spring – Left Wind (LW) – White
🇺🇸 Made in USA
This SSC Extended Cycle torsion spring is manufactured for sectional garage door systems requiring a .2187" wire diameter, 2.00" inside diameter, 26" spring length, and left-wind configuration.
Manufactured by Service Spring Corporation (SSC), this spring is designed for longer service life than a conventional standard-cycle torsion spring while maintaining proper garage door counterbalance when correctly matched to the door.
The spring comes coated and oil tempered with the winding cone and stationary cone pre-installed.

Extended-Cycle Construction
This spring is part of SSC's extended-cycle torsion spring line, intended for applications where increased service life is preferred over a standard spring.
Actual spring life depends on the complete garage door system, including:
-
Door weight
-
Door height
-
Required torque
-
Number of springs
-
Cable drums
-
Track configuration
-
Daily operating frequency
-
Proper installation and winding
The published industry-standard minimum remains 10,000 cycles.
White Wire Color Code
SSC follows standard torsion-spring wire identification colors.
For this spring:
White = .2187" wire diameter
The color marking is an identification aid only.
Always verify the actual wire diameter, inside diameter, spring length, and wind before ordering.
Left-Wind Configuration
This is a Left-Wind (LW) torsion spring.
On many standard two-spring torsion systems, the left-wind spring is typically installed on the right side of the center support when viewed from inside the garage looking toward the door.
Garage door configurations vary, so always verify the actual wind direction before ordering.
Cones Pre-Installed
This spring includes:
-
Winding cone installed
-
Stationary cone installed
The winding cone is used to apply spring tension with proper winding bars.
The stationary cone secures the spring to the center bearing plate or spring anchor bracket.
Application
This torsion spring is intended for compatible sectional garage doors using a torsion-shaft counterbalance system.
Typical applications include:
-
Residential sectional garage doors
-
High-use residential doors
-
Light-commercial sectional doors
-
Replacement of a broken torsion spring
-
Preventive spring replacement
-
Applications where an extended-cycle spring is preferred
Compatibility & Fitment
Torsion springs are not universal.
For correct replacement, verify:
-
Wire diameter: .2187"
-
Inside diameter: 2.00"
-
Spring length: 26"
-
Wind direction: Left Wind
-
Door weight
-
Door height
-
Cable drum type
-
Track configuration
-
Number of springs
-
Required torque / IPPT
A spring with different dimensions may produce significantly different torque even if it looks similar.
Important Matching Notes
For two-spring systems, both springs must work together as a correctly engineered pair.
Verify:
-
Correct RW/LW pairing
-
Matching spring torque
-
Cable drum size
-
Standard-lift, high-lift, or vertical-lift configuration
-
Door weight
-
Available spring space
-
Required cycle life
High-lift and vertical-lift systems require spring selection based on the specific drum and track configuration.
Why Correct Spring Selection Matters
The torsion spring offsets most of the garage door's weight.
A correctly sized and properly wound spring helps:
-
Keep the door balanced
-
Reduce load on the opener
-
Maintain cable tension
-
Provide smooth opening and closing
-
Reduce wear on garage door hardware
An incorrectly selected spring can make the door excessively heavy, overly light, difficult to control, or unsafe.
Ready to Order?
If your garage door system requires a .2187" wire × 2.00" ID × 26" Left-Wind extended-cycle torsion spring, this SSC spring provides a professional-grade replacement with pre-installed cones.
Verify all dimensions and wind direction before ordering, then add the correct spring to your cart.
Safety Warning
⚠️ Garage door torsion springs are under extreme stored energy.
Installation, winding, adjustment, and removal can cause serious injury or property damage if performed incorrectly.
Use proper winding bars and professional garage-door service procedures. Installation by a qualified garage door technician is strongly recommended.
