Speedrite replacement spring for sa0448m
The replacement spring for the Speedrite SA0448M assembly, available on its own rather than as part of a complete unit.
Details
Springs are the parts that do the flexing, and on any fencing hardware they are the first component to fatigue. This is the replacement spring for the SA0448M, so a tired or broken spring does not put an otherwise sound assembly out of service. A spring that has taken a permanent set no longer returns to length, which means it is no longer doing its job even though it looks intact. Compare it against a new one if you are unsure, because the difference in free length is usually obvious side by side. Cold accelerates this. Steel is less forgiving at minus thirty, and a spring that has been cycling all summer will often break on the first hard cold snap, which is exactly when you least want to be out working on it. Keeping a spare on the shelf is cheaper than a trip to town in January. This spring is listed for the SA0448M. Speedrite does not publish a cross-reference chart covering every assembly, so confirm against your unit's part number before ordering if you are working on older or mixed stock.
