SSC .2187" × 2.00" ID × 26.00" Torsion Spring – RW – White
SSC .2187" × 2.00" ID × 26.00" Torsion Spring – RW – White
🇺🇸 Made in USA
This SSC torsion spring is intended for sectional garage door counterbalance systems requiring .2187" wire, a 2.00" inside diameter, a 26.00" relaxed body length, and right-hand wind. It is made from coated, oil-tempered spring wire and includes installed winding and stationary cones.
A correctly matched spring helps the counterbalance system offset the door’s weight throughout its movement. Proper balance matters for both manual operation and opener performance: the opener should move a balanced door rather than compensate for an incorrect spring.

Construction & Included Fittings
The coated wire surface helps protect the spring, while the installed cones provide the connection points for a compatible torsion assembly. The winding cone allows professional tension adjustment; the stationary cone anchors the opposite end in the approved mounting arrangement.
This is a single-spring listing. An additional spring, shaft, drums, cables, bearings, mounting brackets, and winding tools are not included. Existing components must be inspected before they are reused.
Common Uses
Suitable for professional replacement of a matching right-wound spring on a sectional garage door. It can serve in a single- or multiple-spring arrangement when a technician confirms that the full counterbalance design calls for this specification.
There is no universal door-weight capacity based solely on these dimensions. Cable drums, operating turns, door height, and any companion spring affect the application.
Compatibility & Why Length Matters
Match all four identifiers: .2187" wire, 2.00" ID, 26.00" body length, and RW.
This 26.00" spring is not automatically interchangeable with a 25.00" spring of the same wire and inside diameter. A change in length changes the torque increase per turn and can affect balance through the door’s travel.
The listed length is the relaxed coil body, excluding cones. Measurements taken from a spring installed under tension can be misleading. Have the dimensions confirmed safely by a qualified technician.
The 2.00" inside diameter refers to the spring coils. Cone bore, shaft size, mounting pattern, and available space are separate fit checks.
Wind Direction & Identification
Right wound describes the coil direction. The white marking identifies the wire-size color code and must not be used as a lifting-capacity or wind-direction label.
Do not select wind direction solely from the spring’s position on the shaft. Standard and special counterbalance arrangements can differ.
Two-Spring Systems, Drums & Lift Type
If replacing one spring on a two-spring door, have the companion spring inspected and its specification confirmed. Springs with similar service histories may warrant replacement together, but the required pair must be selected for the actual door.
Changes to door weight, drum model, or lift configuration require recalculation. High-lift and vertical-lift doors should not be sized using assumptions from a standard-lift setup.
Cycle Life & Maintenance
The standard minimum rating is 10,000 cycles when correctly applied. Each cycle is one full opening and closing. This rating does not guarantee a fixed lifespan because daily use, corrosion, maintenance, and operating conditions vary.
Follow the door manufacturer’s maintenance guidance and schedule inspection if the door becomes heavy, uneven, noisy, or difficult to operate. Do not increase opener force to compensate for poor balance.
Installation & Safety
Professional installation is required. Never loosen loaded spring fittings, anchor brackets, cable drums, or bottom cable attachments. Use of incorrect tools or uncontrolled tension release can cause severe injury.
A qualified technician should complete the repair with hardware inspection, balance testing, cable tracking checks, and verification of the opener’s safety functions.
Order this SSC right-wound spring after confirming the exact 26.00" specification and your door’s complete counterbalance requirements.
