Product description

The Hood Spring 8308062 is a heavy-duty extension spring designed to provide the necessary counterbalance for your wheel balancer's safety hood. This spring assists the operator in lifting the hood and holds it securely in the raised position, preventing accidental drops that could cause injury or damage. Over time, constant cycling causes the spring steel to fatigue, leading to a "heavy" hood or a failure to stay open. Replacing a stretched or broken spring restores the smooth, effortless motion of the hood assembly. This spring is manufactured from industrial-grade wire with durable hook ends for a long service life in demanding shop environments.
