SSC .2730" × 2.00" ID × 45.00" Torsion Spring – RW – Orange

🇺🇸 Made in USA

The Service Spring Corp .2730" × 2.00" ID × 45.00" right-wind torsion spring is designed for garage door counterbalance systems requiring this exact wire size, inside diameter, body length, and winding direction. It includes installed winding and stationary cones for professional replacement work.

Manufactured from coated, oil-tempered wire, the spring supplies torque through the shaft and cable drums to help offset the door’s weight. Correctly matched to the door, it supports balanced travel and appropriate opener operation throughout the opening and closing cycle.

Specifications

Construction & Included Components

The oil-tempered wire forms the working spring body that stores and releases mechanical energy as the door moves. Its protective coating helps protect the wire surface, but does not make the spring maintenance-free.

Installed winding and stationary cones provide the spring’s tensioning and anchoring interfaces. This listing supplies one spring with cones. Cables, drums, shaft, bearings, mounting brackets, and service tools are separate items.

The 45.00" measurement covers the relaxed coil body only. The cones add to the assembled length, and the installation must provide suitable space for the complete spring and its operating requirements.

Common Applications

Intended for professional replacement where the approved specification is .2730" wire × 2.00" inside diameter × 45.00" body length, right wind.

Neither wire diameter nor body length establishes a universal lifting capacity. Door weight, travel height, cable drums, and the complete spring arrangement determine suitability. Added insulation, reinforcement, or replacement sections can change the counterbalance requirement and should be considered before ordering.

Compatibility & Measurement

Verify all four essential specifications before purchase. The 45.00" length excludes the cones and refers to the fully relaxed spring body. Measurements taken from a spring under tension are not a reliable replacement-length reference.

The 2.00" inside diameter describes the opening through the coils rather than the shaft diameter. Check cone compatibility, shaft fit, anchor mounting, and available clearance separately.

A .2730" × 1.75" ID × 45.00" spring is not equivalent to this 2.00" ID version. Likewise, the left-wind version cannot replace the right-wind spring in the same intended position. Any alternative requires verification against the system design.

Wind Direction & Color Identification

Right wind identifies coil direction. Determine mounting position from the actual torsion assembly rather than a universal side-of-door assumption.

Orange corresponds to .2730" wire in the torsion spring color-code sequence, but orange is also used for other wire sizes, including .1920". Confirm wire diameter directly. The color does not indicate door weight capacity or a required winding setting.

Spring Pairing & Lift Configuration

For doors using two springs, the technician should evaluate their combined output and inspect the companion spring. Replacing both may be appropriate when their service histories and wear are similar.

A properly engineered pair can use different dimensions. Door height, drum geometry, and standard-, high-, or vertical-lift configuration influence selection. A longer spring should not be treated as an extended-cycle upgrade without a supporting counterbalance calculation.

Cycle Life & Maintenance

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

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

Professional Installation & Safety

Installation and tensioning require a qualified garage door professional using appropriate tools. Never loosen loaded cones, spring anchors, drums, or bottom cable brackets.

After installation, have the technician verify spring clearance, cable condition, secure hardware, door balance, and opener safety functions.

Choose this spring for a verified .2730" × 2.00" ID × 45.00" right-wind requirement.
