Product description

This V-shaped Torsion Spring is an essential component for the foot pedal assembly on Coats tire changers, particularly those equipped with electric or air-motor turntables. Its primary function is to provide the necessary tension to return the rotation pedal to its neutral position after the operator releases it. Over years of constant use, the spring steel can fatigue or snap, resulting in a pedal that feels "dead" or, more dangerously, stays engaged, causing the turntable to spin unexpectedly. Replacing a worn or broken torsion spring is a simple yet vital maintenance task that restores the proper ergonomic feel and safety of the machine. This spring is manufactured with high-tensile wire to ensure a long service life in professional automotive shops.

Product highlights

• Corrosion Protection: Treated with a protective coating to prevent rust and degradation in damp or dirty garage environments.
