SSC .2950" × 1.75" ID × 56.00" Torsion Spring – Right Wind – White
SSC .2950" × 1.75" ID × 56.00" Torsion Spring – Right Wind – White
🇺🇸 Made in the USA
The Service Spring Corp .2950" × 1.75" ID × 56.00" right-wind torsion spring is designed for garage door counterbalance systems requiring this specific wire size, inside diameter, body length, and wind direction. Its 56" spring body makes accurate dimensional verification and installation-space assessment especially important.
Manufactured from coated, oil-tempered wire, this spring is supplied with installed winding and stationary cones. When correctly matched to the door and professionally installed, it provides the calculated counterbalance torque needed to support balanced movement through the door’s operating travel.

Construction & Included Components
The oil-tempered wire forms the energy-storing spring body. Its protective coating helps protect the wire surface, but does not remove the need for maintenance or professional inspection.
Winding and stationary cones are installed to provide the spring’s tensioning and anchoring interfaces. Other counterbalance components—including the shaft, lift cables, cable drums, bearings, and support brackets—are separate items.
The 56.00" specification describes the relaxed coil body only. The cones add to the assembled length, and the installation must provide appropriate space for the spring and surrounding hardware during operation.
Common Applications
Intended for professional replacement in garage door systems specifically requiring a .2950" wire × 1.75" ID × 56.00" right-wind spring.
The larger wire size does not establish a universal lifting capacity. Door weight, travel height, drum geometry, and the number and specifications of other springs determine whether this spring is suitable. A wider or heavier-looking door is not sufficient evidence of compatibility.
Compatibility & Measurement
Confirm wire diameter, inside diameter, relaxed body length, and wind direction before ordering. Measurements should be established safely by a qualified technician; a spring under tension does not provide the correct relaxed-length reference.
The 1.75" inside diameter describes the spring’s coil opening rather than the shaft diameter. Cone fit, anchor mounting, shaft arrangement, and available clearance must be verified independently.
This 56" spring is not automatically interchangeable with a 50" spring using the same .2950" wire and 1.75" inside diameter. The length difference affects spring rate and requires evaluation within the complete counterbalance design.
Wind Direction & White Color Identification
Right wind refers to coil direction and must match the intended spring position within the actual system.
White requires particular care during identification because the torsion spring color-code sequence also uses white for other wire sizes, including .2187". A white mark alone cannot identify this .2950" spring. Confirm wire diameter directly and match the remaining specifications.
Spring Pairing & Lift Requirements
If the door uses multiple springs, the technician must consider their combined output and condition. Replacing both springs may be appropriate when they share similar age and wear, but the correct pair does not necessarily consist of identical springs.
Standard-lift, high-lift, and vertical-lift configurations have different counterbalance requirements. Neither body length nor wire size alone establishes suitability for a particular lift arrangement.
Cycle Life & Maintenance
The listed minimum rating is 10,000 cycles in the correct application. One complete opening and closing counts as one cycle; this rating does not promise a fixed number of years.
Follow manufacturer recommendations for lubrication and inspection. Changes in balance, cable tracking, or operating noise require attention. Increasing opener force does not resolve an incorrectly balanced door.
Professional Installation & Safety
Torsion spring installation requires a qualified garage door professional and appropriate service equipment. Never loosen loaded cones, anchors, drums, or bottom cable brackets.
Keep a door with a broken spring out of service until repaired. After installation, have spring clearance, hardware condition, door balance, and opener safety functions checked.
Select this spring for a verified .2950" × 1.75" ID × 56.00" right-wind requirement.
