SSC .2343" × 1.75" ID × 31.50" Torsion Spring – Right Wind – Brown

🇺🇸 Made in the USA

This Service Spring Corp torsion spring features .2343" wire, a 1.75" inside diameter, a 31.50" relaxed spring body length, and right-hand wind. Supplied with winding and stationary cones installed, it is a replacement component for garage door counterbalance systems requiring this exact configuration.

The spring applies torque through the torsion shaft and cable drums to help offset the door’s weight. Proper sizing supports controlled movement and correct balance throughout travel. Its coated, oil-tempered construction and brown wire-size identification provide a clearly specified option for professional replacement work.

Specifications

Construction & Included Components

Oil-tempered spring wire forms the working coil body. The protective coating helps protect the wire surface during service, while appropriate inspection and maintenance remain part of reliable system operation.

Installed winding and stationary cones provide the spring’s connection points within the torsion assembly. Their presence does not establish universal compatibility with every shaft or anchor arrangement.

This listing supplies one spring with cones. Cable drums, lift cables, bearings, support brackets, torsion shaft, and installation tools are separate from the spring itself.

Common Applications

Suitable for professional sectional garage door repairs where the specified replacement is .2343" × 1.75" ID × 31.50", right wind.

A spring should be selected from verified measurements and door requirements, not the opener’s horsepower or the door’s exterior style. If the existing door was poorly balanced before the spring failed, duplicating its spring dimensions may reproduce the original problem.

Compatibility & Measurement

Wire diameter, inside diameter, relaxed body length, and wind direction must all be confirmed. The 31.50" measurement excludes the winding and stationary cones and refers to the coil body when fully relaxed.

The 1.75" inside diameter measures the opening through the spring coils. It does not describe shaft diameter. A technician should verify shaft and cone fit, stationary mounting, and operating clearance.

This spring differs from a .2343" × 1.75" × 28.25" version even though both share the same wire size and coil diameter. Changing body length changes spring rate; substitution requires a counterbalance calculation, not a visual comparison.

Wind Direction & Color Identification

Right wind identifies the spring’s coil direction. Confirm wind independently from measurements and establish installation position from the actual torsion system configuration.

Brown identifies .2343" wire within the torsion spring color-code system. It is an identification aid rather than a door weight rating. Worn, repainted, or unclear markings should never replace direct measurement.

Spring Pairing & Door Hardware

When used with a second spring, this spring must work within the pair’s intended combined output. The technician should assess both springs, particularly when one has failed after a shared service life.

Identical-looking springs are not necessarily the correct pair, and some systems intentionally use different spring dimensions. Door weight, height, cable drum geometry, and lift arrangement determine the appropriate combination.

Cycle Life & Maintenance

The listed minimum rating is 10,000 cycles in the correct application. One complete opening and closing equals one cycle. Usage frequency, environmental conditions, and the condition of surrounding hardware influence actual service duration.

Follow manufacturer recommendations for inspection and lubrication. If the door becomes heavy, moves unevenly, or develops unusual noise, arrange service before continued operation causes additional problems.

Professional Installation & Safety

A qualified garage door professional should handle spring installation and adjustment. Loaded torsion assemblies can release substantial energy if connections are loosened or handled incorrectly.

Never loosen loaded cones, anchors, cable drums, or bottom cable brackets. Following replacement, the technician should inspect cables and bearings, verify secure hardware, and test door balance and opener safety functions.
