CARVALAX Coil Spring Compressor Tool, 2pcs Automotive Spring Compressor Set with Extendable Safety Bracket, 2670LB Heavy Duty Macpherson Strut Spring Compression Set for UTV ATV SUV Light Truck
- Versatile Application: CARVALAX’s spring compressor safely handles the removal and installation of shock absorbers, coil springs, and suspension components, with a jaw opening of 1.8–11.4in (45–290mm). Compatible with springs up to 0.8in (20mm) in wire diameter. It fits most vehicles—including pickup trucks, light trucks, SUVs, ATVs, and UTVs—simplifying complex repairs while ensuring a smoother, more reliable ride.
- Durable Construction: Forged from high-strength alloy steel, the rugged frame is rated for loads up to 2,670LB (1,200 kg) and resists bending or deflection while meeting the demands of heavy-duty service. A black oxide finish provides enhanced corrosion resistance, making it an indispensable tool for both professional technicians and DIYers.
- Secure Locking Mechanism: Unlike conventional rental spring compressors from auto stores, CARVALAX's spring compression tool features a dual safety mechanism for reliable operation and minimal spring pop-out risk. A safety locking ring stays positively engaged, maintaining constant clamping force between the jaws and the spring coils, preventing unintended jaw separation under load.
- Extendable Safety Bracket: The safety bracket adjusts from 8.6–12.2in (220–310 mm) to accommodate various coil spring diameters. This ensures proper alignment and stable, parallel compression, preventing the spring from dislodging under high compressive loads for a controlled, reliable service.
- Ease of Operation: DO NOT USE WITH IMPACT TOOLS. For smooth operation, always grease the threads before use. Compress the spring by turning the hex bolt at the base of the threaded rod with a 3/4in (19mm) socket(included) or wrench. Tighten both sides alternately to maintain even compression, prevent tilting, and ensure a more reliable service.
