SSC .2187" × 2.00" ID × 25.00" Torsion Spring – RW – White

🇺🇸 Made in USA

This Service Spring Corp torsion spring features .2187" wire, a 2.00" inside diameter, a 25.00" spring body length, and right-hand wind. It is designed for garage door counterbalance systems requiring this specific combination of dimensions and winding direction.

Correctly selected and professionally installed, the spring supplies torque through the torsion shaft and cable drums to help offset the door’s weight. Its coated, oil-tempered wire construction is supplied with installed winding and stationary cones, providing a replacement spring assembly for compatible systems.

Specifications

Construction & Included Components

The oil-tempered wire forms the working coil body that stores and releases mechanical energy as the door operates. A protective coating helps protect the wire surface, while periodic inspection and appropriate maintenance remain necessary.

The installed winding cone provides the spring’s tensioning connection, and the stationary cone provides its fixed anchoring connection. This listing includes one spring with cones. The torsion shaft, cable drums, lift cables, bearings, brackets, and installation tools are separate components.

Common Applications

Suitable for professional replacement on sectional garage door systems whose verified requirements call for a .2187" × 2.00" ID × 25.00" right-wind spring.

Door width, opener horsepower, and exterior appearance do not establish the correct spring size. If the door was difficult to balance before the spring failed, or its weight has changed through added insulation or reinforcement, a technician should reassess the counterbalance requirement.

Compatibility & Measurement

Confirm wire diameter, inside diameter, relaxed spring body length, and wind direction before ordering. The 25.00" length refers to the coil body without the cones and should be established with the spring fully relaxed by a qualified professional.

The 2.00" inside diameter measures the spring’s coil opening, not the shaft diameter. Cone fit, shaft compatibility, anchor mounting, and available operating clearance require separate verification.

This spring is not automatically interchangeable with a 24.75" or 26.00" spring of the same wire size and inside diameter. Even a relatively small length difference changes spring characteristics and must be evaluated against the door’s requirements.

Wind Direction & Color Identification

Right wind identifies the direction of the coils. It does not establish a universal mounting side across every torsion system configuration.

White identifies .2187" wire within the torsion spring color-code sequence, but white is also used for other wire sizes, including .2950". Always verify the actual wire diameter rather than selecting by color alone. The color does not indicate door lifting capacity.

Spring Pairing & Lift Configuration

On a two-spring door, both springs must be assessed as part of the complete counterbalance assembly. Similar age and wear may make replacement of both appropriate, although a correctly designed pair does not necessarily use identical spring dimensions.

Door weight, travel height, cable drum geometry, and standard-, high-, or vertical-lift configuration all affect selection. A spring conversion requires professional calculation.

Cycle Life & Maintenance

The listed minimum rating is 10,000 cycles in the correct application. One complete opening and closing equals one cycle; actual service duration depends on usage and operating conditions.

Follow manufacturer guidance for lubrication and inspection. A heavy, uneven, or unusually noisy door requires service rather than an increase in opener force.

Professional Installation & Safety

Torsion springs store substantial energy and require installation by a qualified garage door professional. Never loosen loaded cones, anchors, drums, or bottom cable brackets.

After replacement, the technician should verify door balance, cable condition, secure hardware, and opener safety operation.
