Description

In conjunction with the various spring retainer pairs, the KL-9002-100 tensioning cylinder allows springs from MacPherson suspension strut or wishbone axles to be removed and installed easily and safely, space permitting.
Spring retainers for spring diameters of 60 (inside) - 205 (outside) available.
Maximum load capacity 27 500 N (in case of the prescribed 4-fold safety, the maximum load capacity of the spring retainer is with 27 500 N!)
Characteristics:
• Due to the grid system, the minimum spanner size (opening width) is adjustable to 40 mm and the maximum to 361 mm.
This is important when tensioning very short springs (2 - 3 spring coils) and in case of very long springs, in order to completely release or renew them.
• The forged pressure plates are fixed with a bajonet lock system with automatic lock (tools, screws and screw rings are not needed).
• The spindle drive stays closed, when the locking pin shears off.
The compressed spring can then be released via an auxiliary drive, in order to install a new locking pin.
• A spindle overload during the release process when the maximum operating stroke is reached, is prevented by an automatic free-wheel.
Important to avoid damage to the spring compressor.
• Due to a large pressure plate assortment, the spring compressor can be used on nearly all MacPherson suspension strut axles, damper strut axles and in part on some wishbone axles .
Due to the interaction of high-precision individual components and the use of wear-resistant nitriding steel, the compressor cylinder works very smoothly and nearly without any wear.
For example, tensioning of a Mercedes M-Class spring with a block force of approx. 18 000 N, only requires a driving force of 35 Nm.
Advantages:
• Simple handling regardless of large forces
• Spring retainer attachment with automatic engagement
• Adjustment of spanner sizes
• Drive with additional auxiliary drive
• Automatic free-wheel of the spindle
• Can be also used for conical springs
