Product Description

The SPC 40260 Universal Spring Compressor Tool is a versatile suspension service tool designed to safely compress coil springs and MacPherson strut assemblies on a wide range of vehicles. Its two-piece, internally threaded design offers 1"-11" of travel and supports a 2645 lbf (1200 kg) working load backed by a 3X safety factor, making it suitable for many common automotive spring sizes. Vinyl-coated ends protect spring coils from damage, while safety jaws and a ball-bearing load surface make compression and decompression easier with simple hand tools.

This universal spring compressor is ideal for DIY enthusiasts and professional mechanics alike who need to service or replace struts, shocks, or springs on vehicles with MacPherson strut or coil spring setups. It's important to follow all safety procedures when using a spring compressor, as compressed springs can be dangerous if not handled properly. Always ensure both hooks are used per spring to maintain tool stability and safety during use.
