Spring Specifications

🇺🇸 MADE IN USA | Manufactured by Service Spring Corporation (SSC)

The SSC Right Wind .2343 x 1.75" x 120" Long Length Torsion Spring is a professional-grade replacement spring manufactured in the United States by Service Spring Corporation (SSC).

This long-length torsion spring is manufactured from coated, oil-tempered spring steel and includes both the winding cone and stationary cone pre-installed.

It is designed for residential and applicable light-commercial sectional overhead door systems requiring a .2343" wire diameter, 1.75" inside diameter, 120" spring length, and Right Wind configuration.

How It Works

A torsion spring is a critical component of the overhead door counterbalance system.

As the door closes, the spring winds and stores mechanical energy. When the door opens, the spring releases that stored energy to counterbalance the weight of the door.

A properly calculated torsion spring allows the door to open and close smoothly while reducing the lifting load placed on the garage door opener or manual lifting system.

Because this is a 120-inch long-length torsion spring, correct spring calculations are especially important. Wire size, inside diameter, active spring length, door weight, cable drums, track configuration, and required torque must all match the application.

Compatibility

This SSC torsion spring is not limited to one garage door manufacturer.

It may be used with many residential and light-commercial sectional overhead door systems when the required spring dimensions, torque, wind direction, shaft configuration, and cable drum specifications match.

Compatible applications may include systems from:

• Clopay
• Amarr
• C.H.I. Overhead Doors
• Haas Door
• Raynor
• Midland Garage Door
• Northwest Door
• Martin Door
• DoorLink
• Delden
• Safe-Way
• Certain Wayne Dalton conventional torsion systems
• Other sectional overhead door systems using compatible torsion hardware

Compatibility is determined by the counterbalance system specifications, not simply by the door brand.

Verify Before Ordering

Confirm the following before ordering:

• Wire diameter: .2343"
• Inside diameter: 1.75"
• Spring length: 120"
• Wind direction: Right Wind
• Door weight
• Door height
• Number of springs
• Torsion shaft configuration
• Cable drum type and size
• Track and lift configuration
• Required torque

If your existing system requires a .2343" wire x 1.75" ID x 120" Right Wind torsion spring, this spring may be the correct replacement when the original engineering specifications match.

Do not select a torsion spring based only on door brand, appearance, or approximate dimensions.

Right Wind Identification

This product is a Right Wind (RW) torsion spring.

On a typical two-spring torsion system, the right-wound spring is commonly positioned on the left side of the center bearing bracket when viewed from inside the garage facing the door.

Always verify the required wind direction before ordering or installation.

Applications

Suitable for appropriately engineered:

• Residential sectional overhead doors
• Light-commercial sectional overhead doors
• Long-length torsion spring systems
• Replacement of broken or fatigued torsion springs
• Standard torsion shaft counterbalance systems
• Professional repair and maintenance
• New installations requiring matching spring specifications

Installation Requirements

Installation requires:

• Proper torsion spring winding bars
• Appropriate professional hand tools
• Correct torsion shaft and bearing setup
• Compatible cable drums and lifting cables
• Correct spring calculations
• Proper winding procedure
• Final door balance testing

Long-length torsion springs must be selected and installed according to the specific counterbalance requirements of the door.

Installation & Safety

WARNING: Torsion springs operate under extreme mechanical tension.

Improper removal, installation, adjustment, or winding can cause serious injury, death, or property damage.

Never loosen or adjust a winding cone without properly securing the torsion system and using correctly sized winding bars.

Installation should be performed by a qualified garage door technician or an experienced person familiar with torsion spring systems and proper safety procedures.
