Description
Overview:
Torsion Spring 15 (MPN 231660-9) is a genuine Makita replacement spring for selected Makita power saws. Made from durable metal, it provides the precise rotational tension needed for smooth, reliable operation of key mechanisms inside the tool. It is commonly used in Makita cordless and corded jigsaws, including the BJV140 and BJV180, as well as other compatible models. Replacing a fatigued or broken spring restores correct tension, helping the tool return components to their neutral position and improving cutting control and safety. Designed to meet Makita's original specifications, this part fits exactly where the old spring sits, making maintenance straightforward for both professional users and DIY owners.
